So what do you string it on?  Can't tie it to a steel pole, or you'd 
chop the pole in half.	More so for vegetation and other crap.	IMHO 
"monomolecular wire" is a cheezy plot device introduced by SciFi (as 
opposed to SF) writers who havn't done their homework.	Then we have 
the question as to what idiot you're going to talk into tying it to our 
steel pole and how you'll keep him from accidentally removing his own 
apendages.
