The repair to the switch that I and Leonard proposed, is not in the
slightest bit dangerous,

What other response would anyone expect from a cowboy who
names himself after a used car shyster....?

I'm sure the manufacturers would in no way encouraging your
dangerous antics. I also hope you have informed your house
insurers of what you are doing. In event of a fire you wouldn't
receive a penny (or cent).

There is also no reason why others should have their lives put
in danger by such bodgery.
