Hmmm, I don't think I'd want a drunken electrician re-wiring my apartment. 
I'd hate to see my MicroVAX II end up arc-welded to my toaster oven.

Then again, maybe that's not such a bad idea; it might be nice to have
convenient access to crispy warm bagels while playing nethack.  I will
file this idea along with the hot beverage warmer for the diskless
VAXstation 2000.
