  • Which wire is the hot?

    I have an older home where BOTH wires in the Romex are black (instead of the normal black and white). I screwed up - took a receptacle out to replace it and failed to mark which was to the silver (common / white) side and which was to the brass (hot) side. How can I NOW figure out which was which? I tried my volt meter... figuring ONE way would show 120 POSITIVE and the other 120 NEGATIVE volts. Nope - both showed up as positive numbers. Any Ideas???

  • When being sworn in as a witness... you are asked the following:?

    Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

    If you answer "No." would you be held in contempt of court - even if it is the truth?

  • Can you use those barbed connectors for 1/4" tube with 3/8" PEX?

    I need a small diameter pipe / tubing to get water to some window flower boxes. I plan to use 3/8" PEX & run it along the bottom of our front porch. ALONG THE WAY, there are two flower pots that need a drip emitter. Can I tap into the PEX with a couple of those barbed connectors and run tubing to the two flower pots?

  • On what dates do the Airfares take their jump for Christmas? See details... THANK YOU?

    NEXT Christmas (2009) we will be spending the Holiday with family in Germany. In addition, I will retire in 12/2009. I want to retire early enough so that we can get the cheaper, non-holiday season rates. SO, on or about what date do the airlines up their fares for the Holiday Season. THANK YOU so much for information. truly appreciated.
