Given the discussion of copper strap for grounding purposes,  and knowing
that the conductivity of Aluminum is very very near that of copper .... is there any reason
one shouldnt use the much-more-available aluminum strap instead of copper?

I realize that there's the issue of dissimilar metals, but that seems to be
manageable with the appropriate product....

Your thoughts?|
