Hmm... If you have rubber sole shoes the all metal boxes and metal
conduit could be what kills you. if you touch the grounded light
fixture, the electrical box or the conduit while you are in contact
with the hot wire, it could kill you. If it was all plastic and you
touched it while in contact with the hot wire, you probably wouldn't
even feel it.


NO! Really? I guess the next thing you'll say (G) is that it's not
5mV, but 5mA _current_ through the heart muscle that can cause a problem?

Maybe you could comment on removing a plastic box from the wall without
pulling off "all the drywall". (can anyone say "recip saw with a thin
blade that will cut two common 10d nails?) G

I'm glad you decided to comment. You sound like you just might have some
practical electrical knowledge.
