1.  Horribly expensive to retrofit existing infrastructure.

2.  Whiny people who dont want to give up 12' of their land so that there's
places to bury the cables.

2a.  People who whine louder when eminent domain or right-of-way is used.

2b.  Those are usually the same people who bitch that Starbucks is closed
while driving around in their Land Rover looking for someone to kiss their
ass after a natural disaster.

and so forth.  Yes, I'm grumpy.  I'm wearing plaid shorts and a navy blue
tshirt, flagrantly violating company dress code because I have no way to
run my washer/dryer.
