   The previous time was when I was in high-school physics and I hooked
   up a test lead to the +250V/50ma terminal on a power supply and grabbed
   hold of it to connect it to my experiment.  This had no effect on me
   until I also (how stupid can you get?) hooked a lead up to the -250V/50ma
   terminal and grabbed it.  500V at 50ma(max) across the chest.  It knocked
   my ass across the room.

Ah, but it didn't knock the rest of your body across the room?

I knew they could re-attach fingers, but yer whole tookus? :-) :-)
