Friend of my Dad's tells how one time he was working on a
light socket. Reached in to grab it with pliers, and got a
rap. Reflexively threw the pliers across the room. Cursed a
bit, and explains later he'd never expected to take a rap.
He was in a plane crash in world war two, and had literally
two wooden legs, below the knee. Figured that was insulation
enough.

I'll remember to my dying day the words from a Brit
professor while we
were tooling away in a "rotating electrical machinery" lab
messing
around with three phase motors and generators.

He said, "You men will never be real engineers until you
learn to 'take
a shock'".
