well first off i have to actually see which way the joists are running... hehe. the tile guys are in there now and we wont be able to walk on the floor til tomorrow at the earliest.

like u say, i doubt theres insulation up there at all. the flooring is tongue and groove and there are a couple of spots up stairs that i can barely thru and its wide open... mind you this area is on the othere side of the house, not on top of the kitchen.

i have seen websites state that in order to run light in transverse joist bays, that it is ok to bore a small hole in the joist in order to run the wire thru etc... who knows.

in fact, maybe i will luck out and the joists are running perpendicular to the wire from the switch to the fixture. if thats the case i should already have a way to fish more line thru them... we'll see.

hopefully i can get a much better look at it this weekend and see what i will have on my hands...

thanks again!
