Kind of from that school of thought that learned wisdom from others,

Liar...


Not at all. You see, Dad has always used the industrial strength fence
chargers, starting out when I was young with an International Weedchopper, a
high-voltage relay controlled unit that was on for about 1 second, then off
about the same amount of time to permit the afflicted to release their
involuntary grip on the fence wire. Later came the ~10kv solid state units
after the IWC died. Having accidentally touched those fences with hands,
fingers, and legs there was no way on earth I would even think it an
interesting experiment to allow those suckers a shot at my private parts.
Just accidentally touching the wire with your hands leave you weak-kneed for
a short while.
