The post-er said, "if the outlet conduit is grounded," this will ground your connection as well. If the outlet is not grounded, it will only serve as you have commented - it will deliver power and allow your machine to run, but no surges will be diverted to the grounding circuit since there is none.

Everyone saying this is fine/a good idea is correct. I do this a lot.

One thing to remember, though, is that you can't have that aftermovie "buzz" conversation, which is definitely something I miss compared to when I go with people. You won't have anyone to talk to about it!
