The polarity obviously has to be right too, or you turn into a cretin. If 1 mA can do what they claim, just think what an amp or two could do! I going to plug my tinfoil hat into a 1kV supply right now! By tomorrow morning I will be a mathematical genius!

It all seems a bit too much trouble, all that business about connecting headsets up. I have a chair that comes with it's own metal headcap and will readily supply several kV - got it cheap at an eBay auction of goods from Sing Sing. Sit down, strap in and you're well on your way to collecting the Field's Prize!

or should that be Darwin Award?
