[450] Chimney Mounts

[Rich]

It may not have been debunked, but the incidence is low it would seem. I 
have never heard of it happening to anyone else but Bob in all the years I 
have been in radio.

Alot also depends on the chimney. Good design and workmanship always helps.

Sorry to hear about your problems, Dave. Funny thing is, for once you seem 
to have gotten the worse of the winds last night.....not bad here at all.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving ALL!!!
