how to wire it is something my brain is just itching to throw out. It
needs the space for stuff it will use, like how to fix a fridge or
spread drywall joint compound smoother.

You are of course correct but lots of people who know very little or
just enough to confuse themselves keep dragging PHASE into discussions
about houshold electrics.
The normal houshold supply in the USA is ONE phase with a centre tap
grounded to produce 120 volts above ground and 120 volts below ground or
240 volts between the ENDS :/

Wish I could remember the details. And the people
on this list are glad that I can't. But, I remember
hearing one time, how the theologians of earlier
generations used to write commentaries on this or
that. Commentary on the parable of this or that.
One theologian wrote a summation of the gospel,
in such simple terms he figured it would be the
do all and end all, of writings. Shortly after
he published it, a lot of people wrote commen-
taries on his summary.

Nestork did excellent job of shutting down the
thread, and then someone has to get in one last
word. And, others will write commentaries on
Stormin Mormon and his religious take on the
matter. Sigh.
