Duffer—

I was specifically responding to when you said

There isn't one seperate pair of wires running to each light, that would be a boat-load (sorry for the pun, I couldn't resist) of wires!
in a previous post. If you used a buss bar, fuse box, or switch panel setup, like I did, you would have separate pairs running to each light.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
