I have a house which exhibits an unusual wear pattern of the loss of 
coating on aluminum siding. (I even have a couple of digital photos I could 
send to you if you so choose). The pattern seems to have a specific cadence 
to it. Since aluminum is a conductive metal, can low level currents flow 
through the siding and cause coating loss?
