You fellers are killing me with those stories. I took a peek inside one of those little foil covered books when I was a kid.:shocked: My contribution to this discussion is the day I learned a little bit about high volt power lines and respecting firefighters. A box truck hit a power pole causing lines to fall on the truck. Grass was burning,sparks flying,smoke and just a general fireworks show. The driver was sitting in the cab scared stiff. I about had him convinced that as long as he wasn't touching both truck and ground at same time he wouldn't be hurt. My instructions were to stand on the running board leap through the air to ground. Suddenly there was a voice from behind me that said"do not move one finger until I say so" at the same time a hand on my shoulder pushed me to the ground and same voice said"plant you ***** right here and don't you say another word". After power was cut off,driver safe and order restored,the young firefighter came over,smiled and said get up and come share some water while I talk to you. He explained how a high voltage arc could follow the hapless driver killing him mid-air. BTW,I learned something else that day,sometines a liitle knowledge can be more dangerous than no knowledge at all.
