Cell-Tower Fatalities: 3G iPhones at Any Price?

I have been a tower worker for 11 years. The reasons most accidents occur are from either inexperience, which is the contractors fault, or from just plain recklessness from doing the same thing you have done 500 times before and you lose concentration for one minute. Think how many times you have almost had a wreck while driving. That moment of indecision is all it takes to kill you on a tower. Kind of like electricity (I am also an electrician), you have to respect it every second. And has anybody noticed how many more towers there are in the last ten years? The numbers will continue to rise until there are enough journeymen to lower the need for green new hires.

Oh, and this is VERY crappy reporting by SA. Sorry.
