	I had cause to visit my doctors yesterday. While in the waiting room I noticed all the sockets had the child covers on. I got talking to the doctor about this in his consulting room and just to prove a point I took one of the covers off a socket at the side of his desk, upended it and shoved it in the earth and then showed him the open L / N shutters. He's on the phone like a shot to the practice manager to come and have a look at it. Showed them the http://www.fatallyflawed.org.uk/ web site and left them to panic! __________________ The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.

	I have one nephew who pulled the safety plugs out with his teeth while, of course, drooling. It was fun watching the panic reaction of people who "knew" their house was safe for kids. His pediatrician said he was required by his insurance company to have them in his office.

	This sort of chaos is caused by people trying to make money on a system that is already just about the best in the world already (used in many countries)......and simply "breaking the system" with badly designed ideas.....what's new? __________________ "What others say about you reveals more about them, than it does you."
