“If you visit some house and see that light on, stand and speak quietly and respectfully to tell us who’s sick or died or in jail and be on your way.”

Amen! I keep the light linked to the fan. It goes on when the fan goes on...when I’m cooking, so I can see the food clearly. It goes off when the fan goes off.

Mr. Tracy has a very broad interpretation of the word “savable.”  :)
