I can remember the lovely lilac corona you could get when you poked the end of a screwdriver *near* the tripler in a CRT set. Tens of thousands of volts going *almost* through you (more like around the outside of you, rather than through your innards), but you were the conductor, though you couldn't really feel a thing. There'd, also, be a rather ominous screeching noise from the electronics. -- All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
