Thanks everyone! Really, most of what everyone has had to say here has
been useful. And that idea of using the same outlet with a switch for
the dryer and range--I wouldn't have thought of that, but if it hadn't
been suggested, I wouldn't have learned WHY it cannot and should not be
done! So even posts that seem crazy by the standards of people who
know what they're talking about can be useful to people like me who
know absolutely nothing! If that makes any sense. . .

I will let you know how it goes. . .

Best,

Lesley
