To permit or not to permit.......

This was the question.  Who knew that remodeling could pose moral dilemas.  Here, as everywhere, there's the legal and the "other" way to get things done.  Often the other way is fine from a quality standpoint and it's always cheaper.  But, in the end, it needs to be done right.  Sooooo, we are replacing ALL of the wiring in the entire house.  At least we'll be able to sleep at night and, when time comes to sell, we'll have a clear conscious.
