Typing the name of the anime usually helps finding them, even if it's just to watch a different Youtube video with the same content.

Yes, I know it's a series, it's been a while since the manga started being uploaded in MangaDex. Well, I've decided to make an exception and remove you from the ignore list, now I should notice you.

All right I'm bored let's talk about something.

You know I was thinking the other day

"Why do people make pole for electricity? Isn't just using tall tree better?"

Like that's make sense right? Make the neighborhood green, and living tree is less prone to rot. Pretty good idea right?

Risk of fire, since trees are way easier to enflame if a short-circuit or cable break happen. Also, tree are less aerodynamic and can break more easily if wind is too strong, which happen quite often. BTW, look at any electric pole, around them. It should be free of trees or small vegetal stuff for those reasons.

Also, the poles should have a very specific height, due to the optimal mechanic tension in the cable. The cable should hang with a specific curve between two poles, for reasons i've forgot. And you have it with poles of a specific height. Trees don't allow to have it.

But wooden pole still being used, isn't that also easy to get enflamed?

Also so many rule America its awesome. Here the pole look like shit in some place, they cross over with tree and sometime the cable were very loose and very short

Trees grow, which means that height and spacing of your cables may change, limbs may grow to interfere with the cables, and bark can eventually grow around the cables and mountings or force the mountings out of the trunk. Wood poles are generally treated with creosote to improve resistance against rot over the life of the pole - live trees are actually more prone to rotting than a harvested treated trunk. Small animals are less likely to make a home on a pole than in a tree - while squirrels climbing poles isn't uncommon, they don't generally hang out on them like they do in trees - which reduces the odds of an unfortunate short circuit.

Humu....

Next, you know they called animal group in english different name right?

Like school of fish, herd of cow, and pack of wolf.

From what I heard they were name used by hunter to differentiate between true hunter or just wannabe.

My question is do they just randomly decided on that or there is a thought process to that?

I'm imagining one day a person see group of ravens and said "hmm.... there haven't been a name for group of ravens before right? Let's call them unkindness! They so dark and creepy!"

Well, the idea of filling some trees with high tension lines would kill hundreds, if not thousands of birds every year until they fled forever from that cursed area. Not to mention that a trees grow and you don't want every three months to have someone there pruning those trees (risking themselves to get electrocuted as well) just to keep it operative. So other than creating a death trap, it should be put in my old thread or the MangaDex's bad suggestions one.

Poles suck.

You must construct additional pylons!
