It could have been catastrophic, but I guess someone was looking out for me.

I am looking for a 70W reflector that can be hung for this exact reason. I don't trust the glass, even with just a 70W, but I have no other option at the moment. So I'll be looking for one of those plug-in GFCIs that mike mentioned (thanks for clearing that up mike, I must have missed that) in the mean time.
I'm actually attempting to find a 70W spotlight-style fixture... barring that I might have to have one built (and a reflector for it... and I might as well lens it while I'm at it
).
