"I once had a GC tell me that I shouldn't run up into the attic with my wire unless I had to "like, for lights and stuff", and that I should got horizontally from the panel whenever I could.

Zapped, you should tell him that if his speakers are upside down the sound will come out backwards. [Linked Image]

Another common misconception out there is that if it works, it must be safe....I bang my head against the wall with people who complain that after we've changed over their fuse panel to a breaker panel they keep blowing the circuits.......but they didn't blow the fuses before. Of course, the panel was full of 30 amp fuses.
