The only reason I am embarrashing myself like this is as a courtesy to those who replied and tried to help.

It's not a mistake, it's a learning experience. It ranks right up there with leaving the drain plug out of the boat and then launching it. Point being that you'll always remember to check the wires now when you change the plugs. You get an attaboy for this one for solving it.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
