Amen!
IF the ground side is really neutral an not ground.
Those GFIs are almost unbelieveably fast, but don't work at all if the
wiring isn't properly installed. I wish I had them in the house. Had I had
on on a particular cuircuit I'd still have a very nice pair of flush cutting
side cutters<:-))
Here, they let us use *either* the ground fault breaker (Expensive), or when
a series of outlets are on one circuit you only need make the first outlet a
GFI (Not cheap but far less than the breaker) and it'll work for the rest
on that circuit.
