    I’m starting to think that somehow the water department from shaler is causing all these ruptures. There is an awful lot of them (ruptures) in that township. They suuuuuure do get a lot of overtime for repairing these accidents.

      Did you ever hear of the freeze-thaw cycle? Happens every year as winter is winding down, especially with the old infrastructure in western PA.

    Now now fight nice kids or I’ll have mommy take your computers away.
    Shaler would never do anything like rupture a watermain on purpose because it means they would actually have real work to do God forbid.
