With all the knowledge and experience here in TV and especially on TOTV, one of you must know the answer to this question, which has baffled humans for decades:
What is the purpose of those little (and big) red balls on electrical lines?
None of these I've heard seem right:
- they warn low-flying planes there are wires

- they keep small animals from crossing the lines

- they prevent ice from forming on the wires
So please help us out and tell us the correct answer. (Most of us have already figured out life's other unanswered questions like "why is there air?" and "what is my life's purpose?" but these little red balls . . . it seems no one has been able to figure this one out yet.
