So far, he hasn't started. I'll mention it to Mom and then see if she can convince him. (Hey, it worked when I mentioned my sister didn't even like Batman, and she would probably hate this movie.)

But yes, he is horrible at home repairs. There's a neighbor who has had to a lot of home repair herself, and he wants to call her, and let her talk him through it. (She's 80--and her brothers and sisters want her to do everything for them. Out of town at the moment, so no help for him from that corner.)
