Oh, thanks for the advice!!!!

I will take your advice and hit home depot on the way home.

Also I am having a whole house surge supresser put in my breakerbox. Lightning blew up a tree 30 yards from my house over the summer. I acutally saw it happen. It was very cool! But a few yards closer might have really messed me up big time. Microprocessors are in everything now, including the refrigerater and it would suck to have to replace everything.

Still will put surpressors on individual pieces as need be.
