Some years back, a friend, who was a crazed rock climber, had the DEA, 
State narcs and county division all come thundering onto his backwoods 
property without warrants to inspect what turned out to be his tomato 
and carrot patch. They did some damage and didn't apologize.
So he went to the city and bought a big bundle of plastic pot plants and 
did a very difficult technical climb to install them where the copters 
that spotted them ( CAMP) couldn't get close enough to tell the difference.
They lowered an armed crew on ropes, who rappelled down the rock face 
with difficulty to discover his little joke. Took them quite a while to 
get back out again.  pf

I follow NEC on wiring, I follow good sensible methods on other stuff, but I am a farmer as I am listed by the county, so I don't have much to worry about, except the state keeps flying around looking for Mary Jane, which I have none of that on my property, just ground hog and a coyotes that bother my crops.
