Roy,

These pictures were taken in a small town in Mexico called Taxco. It is a wealthy town known for it's silver jewelery, yet I have seen many not hooked up to meters especially in the central market!!

Mario,
Many of those picture look all too familar . . . my last visit to Mexico last November (sorry, no pictures) I couldn't help but notice many meters would stick out into the walkway as well. If you weren't careful walking the sideways you would/could crash into several within a few hundred feet, plus the sidewalks were uneven, etc.
Thanks for the pics!
