Default house wired without separate ground - problem?

If the two wire circuit (w/o ground) is protected by a GFCI, it's quite
safe. Under some circumstances it is more safe than a grounded outlet
without a GFCI.


Well, yes -- but that's not the situation that was being discussed here.


What?

That's EXACTLY the situation being discussed.


Ummmmmm.... maybe I missed it, but where did the original post make any
mention of GFCIs??
