I'm really bad with static/magnetic things (I can't wear a windup watch,
magnetize the coil, battery watches last about 3 months before I replace
the battery, etc), but the other day I really topped myself.

Went to put gas in the car, touched the button on one of those computer
controlled gas pumps, felt the spark, and the pump rebooted.

That's a strange thing to see. I was very glad I wasn't pumping gas at
the time.
