 One of last year's projects was a site with a tower in a lake.
 ( OK. It was more of a pond. Depends on where you come from.
 Being from Northern Ohio, I classed it as a fair size puddle ! )
 I didn't do the foundations, or stack that steel, but I did do the
 ground system under it, and the tune and proof ( with assist
 from Carl T. Jones ) as well as various other parts of "correcting"
 that build out.

 Al G. knows the one of which I speak.
