I think this thread should be shut down. It is waay too polarizing.

I would be shocked if the moderators tripped the breaker on this well grounded thread.
NOW you tell me...
No that one I photoshopped, but I have seen some square receptacle devices with several options in various orientations. But I have installed a couple hundred of these USB charger receptacles around the college campus where I work, and people really seem to love them. Most of the charging cables these days utilize wall warts with USB ports, so these will eliminate the needs for the wall warts altogether.

Yeah, I like the idea of these things. I'll be replacing a bunch around my house with these also. I'm sort of a gadget freak, my house is full of X-10 and Insteon devices, and it seems like about everything is WiFi capable these days. I really love my Honeywell WiFi thermostat. All of this stuff makes me think of that old Ma and Pa Kettle episode with the ultra modern house that they moved into.
Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

Okay, Dennis, I have to admit that was a joule to read and pretty clever.
An electrician once told me that years ago (before the ground lug) the National Electric Code called for the NEUTRAL wire to always be on the RIGHT side of the outlet. With that requirement in mind, the ground lug has to be at the top.
This made me pull out some of my outlets to check where the screws were but found them terminal.
I wasn't going to add anything but this thread was energized; I couldn't let it go.
