So my anthropology professor, Dr. Stipe, taught me that the Aborigines in Australia, which still maintain a knapping skill, used to climb phone/telegraph poles in the Outback, and knock down the blue glass insulators, to make spear points and scraping tools. Some of these were taken down in really remote areas, a real pain to find and fix..., SO since they couldn't be stopped, the phone/telegraph company started to dump original Coca Cola bottles at the base of a phone pole, about every 10th pole. They'd drop around a half dozen of these, since the base of the bottle was thick enough to work, and the natives learned they only had to follow the phone/telegraph line for a while to find a pile of the bottles, and help themselves, instead of knocking down the insulators and messing up the line.
