    So my neighbor is a FL Snow bird. He lives in CT for the FL summers. His AC keeps freezing. So I go to investigate and forget to turn off the breakers as I stick my hand into the photo below to reconnect a capacitor that had became disconnected. Let me tell you! Biggest shock of my life. On top of the jolt of Thor's Lightning bolt, I hit my head on the exhaust tip of his 63 Stingray on the lift and bled profusely.

    I took the pic before i reach in there just to show him what I had found.

    TRUST ME WHEN I SAY, THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!

    Must be Cali prices. PA taxes the bejezus out of us but it's still around $3.10/gal for 87 around here.

    Nope... There are some stations near me that are $5.89...

    I still don't know it I got the capacitor or just 110 or 220. But, I'll remember what it felt like till the day I die. I have not been zapped with 110 since I was a child. So.... it may have been 110. I'm pretty sure I did not make a connection between both leads on the cap. But who knows. I usually use the screwdriver across the leads method.

    It was the Geritol, which Miss Knight used regularly to prevent iron poor blood ( per advice from Mr. Mack) which she credited for her success.

    .....maybe.
