Why, switch?

I have almost finished wiring the control panel.  It was time to light this candle (or at least power up the LEDs).  Looks great, right?









Well, sort of . . . You may notice that the lights are lit the opposite way the switch is thrown.  You would think that the left terminals of the switch are powered when the toggle is thrown to the left.  You would be wrong.   This  is a cruel joke.  Why, switch?









Now all I need to do is unsolder 12 LED leads and connect 12 criss-crossed jumper wires to fix this.  Gee, only 24 solder joints to go . . . Grr!
