| 636827 | 2008-02-03 04:38:00 | ^ I'd still rather sit on the roof tbh. Well Christchurch is so flat you'd NEED to sit on the roof to get any view worth speaking of. |

| 636829 | 2008-02-03 04:55:00 | I think I will rephrase my query: How do I earth myself? Why is it when I stand on the floor the charges on the exterior of my body do not move to the ground automatically? |

| 636831 | 2008-02-03 05:13:00 | Earth to Jamuz, Earth to Jamuz... come in Jamuz... When you re-enter the atmosphere... Oh well, clothing and fabrics have a lot to do with static electricity. During winter I'm liable to give myself minor electric shocks on things like filing cabinets and the car door. If I wandered round bare foot in the snow it probably wouldn't happen. My Dad, an electrical engineer, once told me that the answer was for me to walk round with an earthing strap attached at one end to my body and the other end trailing behind me on the floor. I thought about it for a bit and decided to stay with the zaps rather than dragging a rubber tail around the place. And to take particular care round electronics by using a wrist strap when fiddling with their innards. |

| 636833 | 2008-02-03 05:40:00 | Oh well, clothing and fabrics have a lot to do with static electricity. Righto. So Jamuz should anchor himself to a steel pin driven into the front lawn, naked. :xmouth: /memo to self: Do not skim read the thread titles. I won't say what I thought this thread title mentioned, but needless to say the Mod alarms went to DEFCON 1. :waughh: |
