What a neat site. Check out the pics of the guy electrocuting himself. Just go up the the bigclive folder and scroll to the bottom of the page.

Fair enough. Could be so. There's usually enough high erudition floating around here for me to doubt that though. I got a couple of answers, and added some thoughts of my own about the subject. All feedback welcome. Even flames are better than what I saw before.
