Re: Why, why, why
I know the answer to the question about dead bugs getting into enclosed light fixtures. They are coming in through your electric boxes mounted inside your ceiling and walls. You wouldn't believe some of the stuff we find when we change out fixtures.

I remember you already posted this two years ago because of the flies in the enclosed light fixtures statement. However, this got me thinking:
Why do people say sorry when it was you who caused the trouble first? If you bump into someone, they say sorry first instead of you. Why is that? They aren't the one's who should be saying sorry!
