Some people would just rather have something esthetically pleasing as apposed to something practical and safe.

I would write this up not as a handrail but as a slide, a way to get downstairs quickly and exit the residence in the event of an emergency or an attack by a disgruntled spouse.

Larry,
No, "he-who-must-be-fed," only the occassional "sweetheart," but that's enough.
