When I lived in St. Louis, the previous owner had hired someone to remodle 
the basement.  When I went to add a light over my pool table I discovered 
that the whole basement was wired with the hot lead going to the lights and 
the switch on the neutral comming back. To make things worse they made 
provisions to add a light later by putting a wire in the suspended ceiling 
wired the same way, it was not even capped or taped. I hate to think what 
would have happened if that wire had touched the frame grid of the ceiling.
