New The part I couldn't get used to...
Having to ground myself before touching things.

I mean, I have heard of electrifying kisses, but the reality is more than a little painful. :-(

Cheers,
Ben

Yeah, that works:)

That's about humidity... and whether you use artificial or natural fibers in your carpeting. Where I have lived is generally humid in the wintertime... which means less static electricity, but also means that the cold feels colder. Winter fogs are very cool (that's when it's foggy at night despite the fact that it's fifteen below... that would be about 0 for you Yanks) but they can be quite uncomfortable if you need to spend a lot of time in them. It's in weather like that when you discover that wool is far far superiour to most if not all of the artificial insulators...

Body piercings don't have this type of torque though.
