(From Tom Baker) Attached is a picture of a moose that got caught up in the lines while a crew in Alaska was pulling in new overhead power lines.

I didn't even know they could fly
I thought it was Bullwinkle J. Moose, and Rocky the Flying Squirrel

Bill, I didn't think Tom Baker was a member here. Is he?

Scott,
'Tom' is used by someone else. Tom Baker is 'Tom Baker'

the average bull moose is 1200 lbs. that is a lot of weight to go unnoticed as you where pulling the wire. I wonder how long he was up there before anyone noticed the animal? I thought Tom Baker was Doctor Who.
