[RFI] Gilding the outlet?

[Pete Smith]

In the sp[irit of the holiday season, I just ran across a catalog listing 
for an audiophile-grade duplex power outlet (you know, like the ones you 
get at Home Depot for 79 cents).

But wait ... this one has oxygen-free, 24-carat gold plating inside the 
contacts and (the piece de resistance) a gold plated, solid brass mounting 
strap.

And it's only $147.72.
