Just a short note:

	Often the reason that people don't know how to do X is that they are
afraid to experiment. Why this is so, I don't know.

	I have washed coloured and white clothes together for years.

	It has not been my experience that more men than women know how
to use tools. Generally, the women don't know how to use them at all and
then men know how to use them badly.

	If you keep doing things like installing phone jacks for your
sister you may be stuck with these jobs for a long time. Neither of my
parents are real good with hardware and so I used to keep getting phone
calls to come home and fix things. Now I'm 2,000 miles away and I guess
they had better manage, but it would have been much more convenient if I
hadn't set a precident for always being there when the lights went out.
