In the country you don't have to like it or even do it but you need to learn how just in case.

In my business I run across people all the time who have NO logic in their brains AT ALL. If you had a high security lock on a door that was loose would it not occur to you to tighten the screws? They will call me and pay me $65 to tighten two screws. Amazin! and that's just the beginning. I could go on and on with amazing tidbits of the lack of logic among the public. I am grateful for their money, but I do get weary of trying to explain the smallest things to folks. Yeah, I have that fabric covered wiring as well and I do not dare put insulation over it. It would catch fire in no time. Eek!
