Ron over electric lines?

I keep hearing about this- you must mean using the electric utility poles and right-of-way to string fiber, right?

The way people say it, it seems like they mean using the existing copper, which is totally implausible. Basic communications engineering says it can't possibly work except at a tin-can-and-string level. Doesn't mean people won't pony up big bucks for yet another hair-brained scheme.
