The insulator collecting was unsuccessful, as folks were stealing them as 
soon as the poles were cut down.  They seem to think they are of some value.
I've seen a lot of them on eBay, and they don't seem to sell very well, 
except for some of the older and rarer ones. I've also seen stands, a kind of 
trivet, where you set the insulators in them upside down for use as candle holders. 
My former neighbor, who was a Va. Power lineman for many years before 
retiring and moving to Arkansas, had a fairly large collection of insulators he had 
picked up over the years.
