Well, lad, nice yarn, but if you told it around here, you would get yers elf drawn and quartered, along with yers dwarf, yers hobbit, yers mage, and yers truly. One of the tower companies just got severely trashed here in a fight with neighbors who didn't think yer erector set looked good at the top of a tree covered ridge. They ended up cutting it in half (more than in half, since the current height includes the lightning rod, which was not counted by the company the first time around). Alternatively, they might just tie you to the lightning rod and start praying to Zeus.
