Static Electricity - Okay Smart People!
I had something happen this weekend that was a bit alarming.
I had quite a bit of static electricity built up and when I would touch things in my apartment, of course, it would have that bit of shock.
I reached to turn on my table lamp and didn't even turn the switch yet and as I touched the switch, the lamp bulb actually lit up quickly. Scared me to death, so I didn't turn the switch on.
Can a body have enough static electricity to actually light up a light bulb?
