I might just do that... figured I'd call around a bit, see what the prices for doing the whole job versus doing a pre- and post-inspection to ensure it's up to code. I'd much rather do the grunt work myself... but seein' as the basement's unfinished, running wire and attaching outlet boxes shouldn't take too long.
I helped my Dad a bit on various electrical projects while growing up, but I should've paid a lot more attention to what's and why's. Some of it might have sunk into this thick skull of mine. I'm finding myself say that a lot these days. Can't wait 'til I get to the other side of that "light at the end of the tunnel"... I can see my Dad sitting there, saying "Told you so. Now are you gonna listen to me?" ;oD
