   Cool!  We don't have those down here, and i just re-read Stephen King's IT, where the standpipe topples down a hill.  The description fits that perfectly.

   Thanks for filling in my mental blank.

   Walter,

   Thanx for sharing. The EPA would prolly not let that type construction be built today.

   Forrest,

   He only lives just a few blocks from this structure.
