Default To Ott or not to Ott?

Polly, NM is right about the origins of that phrase. The implication
is that the infamous 'N' word is in play and that your actions would
be the opposite of the actions of those to whom that infamous word
would apply. I know, nobody ever explained that. Now I hear all kinds
of people using the phrase 'like white on rice' and wonder if they
don't understand the origins of that saying, which are very similar
and have little to nothing to do with the color of rice in general or
specific. Just sayin'.

As for Ott light bulbs ... I can't use them, but love the Reveal
lights for their good, soft white light.
