Yeah--I thought it was a fakey thing too. But that was my reaction. It made me think that I shall have to reconsider/not judge quite so harshly next time I see that fake HHJJ thing going on.
helen, sam--yeah, you guessed it. Yes, this was the secret project I was working on. I couldn't, of course, afford to pay an electrician or a hot tub repair person to do any of the wiring and repair which needed doing, so I got a little on-the-job education in 220 volt wiring, GFIC's, pump repair, heater element replacement, and so forth.
Economist Jeffrey Sachs estimates that malaria, which kills 2 million children annualy, could be contained for a mere US$3 Billion per year. Think about it. $100 Billion to kill 200,000 people in Iraq each year, or $3 Billion to save 2 million children in Africa each year. Hmmmm.

I thought HHJJ was a fakey thing but now I see there's a real kind and a fake kind - I'm sure yours is the real kind!

Helen,

Was this the 'top secret project' you were working on recently?
