Lenny can't you tell if the circuit is on by the position of the switch?  
Usually when the handle of the switch is in the up position, power is on to the 
circuit.

  Hi, Why don't you get one of the light sockets that screws into the light 
  socket that has plugs in it then plug a radio into it leave it on just 
  enough so you can hear it..

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] lights on or off

  Hi All,
  I am looking for a simple solution to the problem of knowing if the 
  basement lights are on or off.
  Some days I can detect if the light is on but not all of the time.
  Years ago I had a neat smoke detector that screwed into a light socket and 
  the bulb then screwed into this detector. The unit had rechargeable 
  batteries. Whenever you turned on the light the unit would beep letting you 
  know it was charging. I haven't seen any of them in years. Is there some 
  alarm that will beep when the lights are turned on?
