Posthole diggers dont seem to be common anymore. Now there is this attachment for Bobcats and stuff which is kinda like a ditchwitch but different. Now what happened to the forests? Did those trees get so expensive that the wooden posthole digger handles are now too costly resulting in a flood of purely mechanical hole digging tools? Did the Spotted Owl cause the extinction of posthole diggers, or was something entirely more sinister at work?

Questions worth questing. Riddles without clearcut consensus and ambiguous conclusions. Those are the cards dealt and picked up for the modern day day laborer looking to avoid another day spent sheparding around and/or sitting upon some mechanical menace taking all decent activity and exertion from the labor part of the day.

Or could it be roads, roads without need of posts, cars whizzing by so far and so fast that the need to hitch and guide a horse is no longer concerns to any and all. Could it be that todays world has no need for the post, much less the digger of holes, and even less for the digger of post holes?
