     That’s because they’ve evolved.

       When you say, all contributions welcome – is this hand-outs so you can buy a second cup of coffee.

   Do they install nuclear reactors, for the added mutations?

   I don’t have a picture, but in thinking about “Evolve Electrical” and the natural selection of electricians, this older blog of mine pops to mind!

     An interesting tale, your link Steve. – On a good I day call myself a heating engineer and electrics come into that, so I know a fair bit about electrical installations. I’m familiar with ground fault circuit interrupters but what’s an electical receptacle.- never heard of that one? – Is it something to keep spare electrons in? (Can I put in at the end of a sentence?)

       John,

       It may be an American term, but it does come up in an online (US) dictionary:

       Noun 1. electric receptacle – receptacle providing a place in a wiring system where current can be taken to run electrical devices

         Well it does sound better when I say electrical receptacle in my John Wayne impersonation voice. Thanks for the info Steve.

   Y’know, I think electricians are in a profession where I’d rather they dealt in intelligent design than in evolution…

     It’s all right you scientists mocking us trades-men – but come the revolution you’ll be in trouble – we’ll think of something nasty by then.
