Hell, I owned a house that was wired with aluminum. With the right outlets
and switches, it was perfectly fine. With the wrong ones. it was a fire
waiting to happen. The subdivision that I lived in is a few blocks away from
this one and I haven't heard of an electrical fire since it was built in
'75. My buddy is a fireman and he hadn't heard of one either. Lots of
press. Some bad problems, but not as bad as most would make it out to
be...RichG
