George,
Thought it might have been Washington D.C. The only other non-death-penalty state at present bordering Va. appears to be WV, and I know they were the last state to adopt the chair in 1949, so it wouldn't have been a turn-of-the-century installation.

BJ,
Hee-hee! Gives new meaning to the term "jump start." [Linked Image] But did you hear about the proposed new NEC rule? In order to provide greater safety against shock electric chairs will be required to be fed via a GFCI -- [Linked Image] [Linked Image]

P.S. Re "State of Confusion," I ran into somebody the other day who was convinced that America has 52 states. No way could I get him to believe that it's only 50.
(And I've lost count of the number of people here who don't realize that Washington D.C. and Washington State are two different places on opposite sides of the country!)
