This is not a code or safety issue, and the question has been asked numerous times. If you perform a search of the subject, you should have enough info to keep you busy for a couple of days reading it all.

By the way Larry, please do not use the Caps Lock feature. It is perceived as shouting and it makes your post difficult to read.

Also, welcome to the forum.

Just had this same argument today.Just love it when some one comes up with (its code to have ground up)I then ask them to cite the article,to wich you always get the answer,its in there someplace LOL.Show them a gfci receptacle and watch them try to wiggle out of it.TEST is written both ways.
Do be carefull that its not on the spec sheet.
