[TowerTalk] Water in Conduit...

[Patrick Greenlee]

I wonder what keeps the water inside of PVC pipe when pressurized to 100 
PSI plus with no leaks but lets water at a couple PSI, at most, get in 
from the outside if not pressurized with compressed air on the inside. 
Another one of the things that can make you go hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
