I have taken a socket and a long extension and turned it from the top when
it was REALLY jammed up.  But Ed is right, if it moves, the problem ain't
jamming.  Check your wiring, and if it is on a GFI circuit, find the reset
and reset it.  Might be that simple, and I've overlooked that before

only thing you can do.  And after that, you're off to the Borg.
