I have not been following this thread at all, but I just happened to 
noticed someone else's posting wherein a Ditch Witch machine was 
mentioned.

Factual comment: 

I have been retained as an expert on a case where a Ditch Witch machine,
operated by professionals, drilled a hole in a gas line. No one was
killed in the ensuing explosion, but two houses were completely
demolished and others sustained considerable damage. 

End of comment.
