RE: Not Safe

"Where two units are plugged into the same socket, that burns out completely.

The fuss over it being dangerous to self, is a bit overplayed."

Even potentially starting a fire in your house as you posted? Amateurs and electricity are a bad combination and your statement at the end of your post I perceive as irresponsible.
FYI... I am a qualified electrician and have over 25 years experience in industrial electric systems and instrumentation. I understand the theory behind using shunting caps to reduce noise. I have been required on several occasions to install them to put a band aid on a problem. I certainly would not attempt what was advocated by the OP. I would even be hesitant to install Al Sekala's device as mentioned by another poster.
