Yep, that's the way I see it. Too many times, I've fought with the results
of someone having made an erroneous assumption about something. Too many of
those times, it was me. In my ongoing attempts at being a recovering idiot,
I've adopted the philosophy that the only way to go is to make everything as
idiot resistant, and as situation resistant as possible. That means, among
other things, *never* installing a heater bar without a humidistat. 

assume =    ass = u & me
