Hm, interesting.  I had thought it was more common than that.  (At least 
Wikipedia talks about conduit usage, but the articles there may be targeted at 
a different audience.)  Without conduit, though, how easy is it to run an 
additional line along an existing line?  It seems to me that it would be 
rather difficult, especially as there's no pull string so I'd have to snake a 
line through the hard way, possibly drilling holes if the lines go through 
boards somewhere.
