    I must say I am very distraught seeing that ring in the photo Andi. Any chance the photo was reversed?

    alright, i'll concede the point. and i've noticed the boards have been cleaner in the last few days, (thanks!) and you wont hear me complain about overzealous hammering when i just got done bitching about how lax things had become around here.

    I've got a Belkin power strip where the sockets swivel 90 degrees individually; you can cram quite a few bricks into that puppy...

    I would love to have one of these, but, when my house was built the electrician wired all the top outlets to a switch on the wall (for lamps, etc) so unless I leave all the lights ON, the top half of the power doesnt work. (Yes, I know, I can turn them off individually, but then I fall on my face feeling around for the lamp in the dark.)

    @Curves: Get a Lightning Switch for the lamp. Uses unpowered RF signals to turn the lights on and off from any outlet. NO wiring required. They are great. I use them in my home where I have a lack of overhead lighting but want a light switch at the door.

    @bandit: Thank you, I will check it out. I was worried I might have to get a "Clapper". (I would rather fall on my face in the dark then have to hear that song "CLAP ON/CLAP OFF - THE CLAPPER" in my head every time I use it.)
