I think my attitude towards neutrals changed once I put 2+2 together after seeing sparks from a neutral that was in use. I mean I know that a complete circuit needs a live and a return (neutral) you just don't think too much about it since it usually won't shock you (unless there is something wrong). But what goes in must go back out so the neutral is just as important as the live wire, if not more so since a bad neutral poses even more danger than a bad live wire. Good discussion though.
