Heh, heh. OK, I won't worry about it, then.

I don't plan to use it anyway, since I think my electric fence will work 
well enough to keep the squirrels discouraged. But I'm in town, and if 
anyone complained (though this is a low-powered pet fence, not a cattle 
fence), I'd probably have to remove it.

Thanks,
