I presented a problem, post hole filling with water, and many of us had a decent discussion about
it. Most folks had some very fine suggestions, and I learned some things about water-logged post
holes. As a Combat Engineer, I'd have told the Platoon Sergeant to get a pump and keep the hole dry.
Nail some bracing on the post and dump in the concrete. And, I'd have had the hole dug with an
auger. Couldn't do that here because the hole is within 2" of a gas line - made of plastic,
according to the Miss Utility guy.

The nice thing was the discussion, without the dissension and politics. Of course, there had to be a
couple exceptions.

Thanks all, I appreciate it.
