One final note on connecting grounds. According to NEC the grounding/protective ground (green) wire and the grounded/neutral (white) wire are to be connected only at the main entrance panel.
In many cases where there is metal conduit, the conduit is used for the grounding (green) system. To reduce noise sometimes a grounding wire for each outlet is run all the way back to the point where the grounding and grounded systems are bonded together. As I recall, generally these outlets are orange. You can see this in action where there is more than one fuse box in the house. There is a green screw that connects the terminal block for white wires to the box (which is grounded). This screw is not used in any of the sub boxes.
