Sounds like you may have had a low-voltage situation at the house--possibly on one phase. Low-voltage has a nasty tendency to kill appliances young and old and for you to have had three things die in short order tells me they had an external influence. Blame it all on Obama. This is part of the "Stimulus Package" from last year. There was one provision in there to drop the USA voltage from the nominal 120VAC to 95VAC to cause mass appliance failure. The rush to buy new appliances was for his buddy, the head of GE. ;) AG (have I sufficiently offended both sides yet?)
