Me and friend of mine was OFF-ROAD Jeeping down an abandoned old roadway in West Texas years past and came up on a couple of guys that had a big bonfire going.
We stopped and visited awhile and noticed they was burning up lots of covered wire. Didn't think much about it at the time but later got to thinking that what they was doing was burning off the wire covering so they could sell the wire for profit... Probably can get alot money for wire these days...

One of two things, electricians burning off scrap wire from a job, OR thieves!!!
