Just another shocker....

My senior year at college I was working in the physics lab attempting to charge
a teflon disk to approx. 1200v.  It just so happens that the teflon disk was
located in a plastic holder.  I was and always am very careful around H.V., in
fact, the supply that I was using had enough current capacity to demand
respect.  To make a long story short, I was holding the plastic holder and I
applied the H.V. probe to the disk.  The probe accidently touched the plastic
holder, no problem right it's plastic. WRONG it was of course conductive
plastic, an introduction that I will never forget; if only I could remember.
