Stop calling Duke Energy !!!! Go play some golf.....That's what you came here to do in the first place.

The letter is a lot longer than this, I just reduced it because I don't like to type that much. If you want a copy, hop on your cart and drive over. To make matters worse, some idiot has put 4 empty gas cans where the litter bag is.

I must commend Steve9930 for remarkable restraint. I suspect that if I had made his post then my reply to the post of leftyf would have been
"I told you so."
I agree with Steve9930 that it was a great mistake to continue to bring this issue up, and particularly to continue to bring it up to Duke Energy. The rational thing would have been for those who use the path to continue to use it until Duke took some affirmative action to close the path.
This is simple. If Duke Energy wanted to close the path, it could be accomplished in a couple of hours by bringing some earth moving equipment and plowing great trenches across the property.
The rational thing to do would have been to
not poke the sleeping giant. This is a case where it was easier to get forgiveness than permission.
