So, they performed a study using subjects who volunteered to receive electric shocks. That isn't exactly the mainstream population is it?

"The shocks varied in intensity, from barely detectable to the pain of a needle jab."

The science seems sound to me. Caveat Emptor!

That's funny. I have been working with electricity for almost 25 years. A 'needle jab'. Hah. If that's all I ever got I would never worry. Try getting hit with 577VAC or three phases of 480VAC and then tell me which you would choose.

Billions of electrons travelling through your body at the speed of light can be very stimulating - or painful - it depends on your outlook. :)
