-> That's the way it works around here. Someone posted a legal term to
-> this NG a while ago, something like "adverse benefit" or something. The

Actually, in some cases a fence can be a bad thing. A police officer told
my neighbor (when I lived in NC) that homes with privacy fences are more
often the targets of burglars than homes with no fences or only chain link
fences.
