As I thought it through, I realized that willy-nilly screws are fine with me, as long as the switchplates stay on the wall.

Even though, at that time, nobody called me names for that liberal thinking, I bet if the screw direction topic came around again, it would devolve into a knock-down-drag-out.

(Thanks for the thread rustyp. I am not worried about opening this one and ruining my morning. )
Screws are without a doubt East to West! Make certain the Wall Plate is Perfectly Square!
Any identification letters or numbers on a light bulb on the base of the bulb or the top of the bulb must face the wall!

I just checked all of ours and everything is in order!
