Here in Tucson a guy was hopitalized on Saturday with critical injuries after he tried to move a downed power line wearing a pair of leather gloves. Apparently the power line was laying against a tree causing it to burn the tree and he was attempting to stop the fire. The newspaper said the line carried 2400 volts.

Edited to ask, "Why DO you have a fire truck parked in your yard?"
