You ninnies that are afraid of 120 VAC electricity are the kooks of the
world. I've been knocked across the room a half dozen times by the 40,000
volts in a TV picture tube, and another half-dozen times by the 450 volts
of DC in the capacitor bank of big tube stereo amplifiers, in the
previous line of work. I can tell you the caps were worse.


That certainly explains plenty.
