Every time this subject comes up either on this forum or on other forums I frequent it always descends into comments like these. You guys make it sound like if all the wiring and all the connections are not just absolutely perfect we're all gonna die.
Look, it wasn't until sometime in the 70's I think that houses were required to even have ground circuits in them. My friend lives in Manhattan Beach, California, a very expensive area in a house built around 1962 or so and some of her outlets have just two prongs, and some have three. Anybody here who's over 50 or so grew up in a house like that and guess what? We didn't die. We all had wire snippers and either cut the ground plug off an AC plug so we could plug it into a two prong outlet or we bought the adapters. Years ago I remember my dad had a drawer full of them. We're all still here.
You guys need to lighten up a bit about ultimate safety. Sure it's safer to have everything grounded, it's also safer to only drive a brand new car every year because after all, that model is safer than the previous year. How old are your vehicles? Don't you know that a nice 25 year old truck you drive every day is an unsafe piece of crap?
C'mon, put a little perspective on this.
