could it be related to this discussion?
or maybe it is static electricity? When i was at Thule Greenland i would amuse myself during the dark season (Oct-Mar) and could not sleep by making
foot long arcs off the tip of one hand while running my other hand across the flannel sheets. "come thunder! come Lightning! Who dares challenge the
mighty Launchpad? Waahahaha"
some bolts of static disgcharge could be thicker than a thumb- i got thrown across the room by one the first time i put the sheets on the bed after
doing the traditional "snap" in the air to open the sheets from being folded. it left a 2nd degree burn on my kneecap where the arc jumped from the
end of the bed to my leg.
Static electricty was responsible for A LOT of electronics damage- VCR's/ DVD players / home computers all getting zapped quite frequently by a whole
lot of folks.
i found out that you could not use a regular vaccum with a "beater brush" because the rotating brush would charge up so much static that within the
first minute of using it POOF- it would short out. only vaccumes using pure suction worked up there.
i could shuffel my feet (in socks) across the carpet in my room- hold my hands out horizontal to my shoulder and cause a piece of saran wrap to
levitate from the floor up to my hand. (some might call this Telekinisis)
i could hold a floresent lightbulb in my hand ,shffule my feet and it would light up - now i am in Colorado and it works here too so it must not take
as much to get it to light up as could be generated in the super dry environment of Greenland.
