todwic: no problem: I'll move it to OT for ya!
But: funny you should mention drilling & leaking: just last week, the DPW was digging infront of my work buildling. Wouldn't you know it: they broke through a natural gas line. Ever smell that gas smell when the pilot light in the stove isn't working? Well, that's what you could smell outside my building!
(anyone gotta match?!? hehehe)
