Probably before they had polarized plugs, too.

Somewhere inside the case a hot wire is touching the case. I
smiled,
as I thought back to the drill I used as a child. That drill
would go
for weeks at a time just being a drill, then it would bite,
and bite
hard, I couldn't just open my hand and let it drop, it would
stick
fast with the electricity & sometimes shaking it off
wouldn't even
work. I'm sure i was a comical sight dancing around with the
drill
defying gravity off of my palm. I had no replacement, and it
happened
infrequently, so I kept using it. Times were different,
folks didn't
try to child proof everything. I can tell you it was much
worse
barefoot, than wearing tennis shoes.
