Doug, Just because it works, that doesn't mean its safe or a success. I
could get my Staber washing machine to run on a power cord made out of
barbed wire. If I called you to say it was working, would I get an
"overwhelming success" sticker too? I  work with do-it-yourselfers all the
time with unsafe systems. Their attitude is "its worked fine for years, why
should I put in fuses?"
While I don't second Bob-O's specious personation, I do second his vote
that Non-wrenches not be allowed on the list.
