    I suspect they already knew where the utility was, and were fucking with you.

      It was pvc and they only locate power and other cables, so it’s not like we had any confirmation. I stay skeptical.

      No, people swear by this, honestly. It’s not like asking someone for a “left handed smoke shifter” as an initiation right. People rural and metro genuinely think this is a real thing. At a few hundred a pop I would wager there’s ~$50k in these things that will be purches by various contractors out of the new infrastructure build in the US. It’s wild.
