I'm afraid to find out.

The conversation went like this...
Electrician: "If the old pole weren't too high, we can set a 6x6 treated pole, otherwise we're gonna play hell tryin' to find a telephone pole. There's some guy in Punxsy that has em, I think."
Me: "Yeah, his name's Brian Bickle. He's unlisted and I haven't tracked him down yet."
Electrician: "How high is that pole, you suppose".
Me: "I have no clue at all. Maybe 20 foot, max."
Electrician: "You think it's bigger than that?"
Me: "I don't think so, but I wouldn't bet on it."
Electrician: "You wanna run out there and measure it?"
Me: "Being as you're going there to take off a material list, you think you could measure it when you get there?"
Electrician: "Good idea."
I never got a callback and I ended up with a 6x6 treated pole, so it's all good.
