>Not just cat-lovers, animal lovers. < I I I am an animal lover too. I just don't want'em in my house unless they're fully cooked or at least oven ready. My other, less well-correlated theory is that the wood floor advocates are not so bothered by walking barefoot on f'f'f'f'COLD floors. Me, I hate cold, and wall-to-wall is one of my favorite things. The idea of driving over a wet rug to squeej it is appealing however. Some folkshereabouts have dually pickups with WIDE single tires fitted in those pouchy wheelwells - two passes by one of those would wring out an 8x12.

Yah, well I have ceramic tile downstairs. Ripped out the nasty wall-to-wall and installed the tiles myself. Not half bad. I'm so talented. I'd have installed wood, but these townhomes are prone to flooding. Someone's water heater springs a leak, or their clothes washer hose breaks, and everybody floods. A half hour with a wet vac on the ceramic tile and La Casa Freddy is back in business. Wimpy Lather would freeze here. Ceramic tile, and half the time my heater doesn't work. It's just like camping out.
