Throughout this discussion, everyone seems to be assuming that the
proposed scheme would work. I am not convinced of this although I
would not want to be the one to try the experiment. But here is
my objection, if someone can address it.

How do you know that the liquid does not separate into discrete
drops as it falls ? If that were the case, then there would not
be a connection between the source of the liquid and the source of
electricity. The reason I raise this possibility is that I remember
once visiting the aquarium in Boston and seeing a display of water
pouring out of a source and falling in a parabolic curve. The water
was illuminated by a strobe light which showed quite clearly that
despite the appearance that it was continuous, it actually consisted
separate drops.
