 BA>>> Those are things that
 BA>>> are quick and dirty - and can be done by one person; and
 BA>>> unless every inch of those cables are covered by video
 BA>>> monitors the perpetrator will not be caught.

 BK>>  Then, since we don't know who did it, it's moot.

 BA> Who profits?  The union.  There's no reason for anyone

 A: A company flack trying to make the union look bad. A short
 time withou service, the cost of a repair, against a major loss
 to the union.

 B: Some vandal, getting a thrill.

 The company can, and often does, go to great lengths to disrupt
 and interfere with that free election.

 BK>>>>  Where was this? When was this?

 BA>>> In Ohio AAMOF.  Late 1960s.  That may be ancient history to
 BA>>> you, but it does show the union mindset.

 BK>>  Actually, it doesn't show anything at all. You are talking
 BK>>  nearly a generation ago.

 BA> I don't care if it was a generation ago, a century ago, or
 BA> yesterday, it shows the union mindset.

 Not until you can show the union was involved.

 BK>>  Has there been any such cases since?

 BA> Probably.  I haven't been keeping up.

 You forget, the companies did much the same sort of violence
 back then, so how do you balance that?
