Heh.  Life *is* beautiful.  I just don't believe everything I read in this
Newsgroup (or what I hear) unless it can be substantiated with a bona-fide
reference.  I'll check the Ontario Building Code and let you know.

If you read my responses in this thread (and in the others where Robert's
mentioned this issue), you'll find I don't advocate doing this either.  IMO,
a professional installer should recommend the best methods of protecting his
clients and not compromise for the sake of $40.00 or even $100.00.
