    I am going to step in here and note that you are right the original
question did suggest two (or more) duplex receptacles.  I however did
suggest that a single receptacle could be split.

    This thread does prove one thing.  FOLLOW the CODE!  Following the code
keeps everyone safe.  Failing to do that and trying to guess what is safe,
is not smart.  There are far too many twist and turns that can result in
dangerous situations for anyone to think they know better than the code.

    I do appreciate all the good advice (and some of the not so good) I read
here.  It seems we have enough good minds that in the end, the good advice
comes to the top.
