My roommate Beth couldn't wear battery watches.... they always went dead quick so she had to stick with a wind-up.

I think it had to do with her personal electrical field. She ~always~ had static really bad, she was some kind of lightning rod walkin' around with her hair on end all the time. She'd stand and let someone else open the door because she was afraid to touch the knob. :~D

How's your static?

I've had good luck until the past two! But I'm getting disgusted.

I do have static problems, but I dunno if I'm any worse than the standard... ;-)

Heh...I remember one time, though, when I was in the military. We had some bigwig coming through...a general or something, I don't recall his name or anything now...and they had us all straighten up our areas and wear our best uniforms and lined us all up to shake hands with him. He went down the line, and when he got to me, I shook hands and there was an audible *SNAP* and sparks. Heh...he was nice enough to pretend nothing had happened.
