Dan,
I can't believe there absolutely no access to your attic? Might be time
to
call an electrician who can run wire. My parents house built in the
1940's
doesn't have much attic access - mostly just a small hole in one of the
closet ceilings, but its enough to get up there to insulate or run wires.
