[TowerTalk] Gided/guyded/guided towers

[Ronnie Carter]

Hehehe.... that was hilarious!!

Speaking of illiteracy and spelling creativity, we have cops around here who 
refer to "guide wires" on a utility pole, as well as someone running off 
into the "medium" of the interstate...

Why wouldn't they call the median strip the "small" or the "large?"

Sorry, couldn't resist!
