I gotta hand it to you, Carl - I do stuff like that & I try like hell to
hide it ...I'd never have the guts you're showing in telling the whole
bloody world!!! (come to think of it, just today I decided to tighten a
bunch of relay wire screws - 110V controlling 220V at the relay;  dummy
that I be, I shut down the 110 & found out the hard way that the 220 was
still live.  I've still got that 'glow' + frizzy hair).
