Funny you should mention capacitors. While going to school, I worked for a
lawn mower repair place. I worked on push lawnmowers mostly with Briggs
engines. Well, had a capacitor checking machine that would charge it and
test it. Then you could, if you want, hit the button to discharge it. The
guy that owned the place let his six year old kid do just about whatever
he wanted. He'd always come and start fiddling with stuff on your bench.
SO I charge me up a capacitor and sit it there on the bench. Sure enough,
he comes up and picks it up!!!!! He NEVER messed with my stuff again.



Oh my...now it all comes out. Is this how it started?
