A few things...
#1: Enjoy putting all of your eggs into the technology basket. Keep buying those ipads without question. Remember, the earth was flat at one point. I'm sticking with God, nature and intuition.
#2: It's very amusing that I pushed so many buttons. Whenever you're trying to convince anyone of anything it means you don't believe it fully yourself. Because if you did, it would be the truth and you wouldn't have to say a word. All i'm doing is asking questions that no one asks. Getting attacked for asking unpopular questions is sure a sign of the stangant times we live in. I'm really glad i'm 24 with an open mind - not old and stubborn. It's the crab in a bucket effect. Each time a crab makes his way closer to the top rim, a crab from below reaches up and pulls him back down.
I created this topic because i'm an esotericist. I look at things behind the veil. The fact that 9/11 was performed by our own government, for example.
Also, because turbos response was the most ridiculous:

So what is this little sorta-grounded anti-static pad going to do that the two sheet of "grounded" metal between you and the battery doesn't? yeah. nothing.
Play with a multimeter and attach it to your body. This is not a conventional anti-static pad.

Did you scrape the paint off the rails? If not you aren't doing anything. Did you know static pads have a dissipating resistor in the cable? Meaning your pad is grounded through a very high resistance, degrading it's usefulness even more.
There is no paint under the rail because no one ever sees it. Stop making assumptions. Also, the cable is specially made without the dissipating resistor because it is not a regular static pad.

Wow, hope lightening doesn't strike anywhere near your house. Incredibly dumb from a safety standpoint. You are worried about EMF and you are basically connecting yourself to giant network of wires that are inductively picking up EMF noise from all over *and giving it a direct connection to you*. What conducts EMF better? Air or copper?
This proves that you know
nothing about electromagnetism and its effects on the body. The earth is a giant battery being charged thousands of times a day by lightning. We are electrically insignificant when we are insulated from it. Again, play with a multimeter connected to your body because i'm not going to convince you.

Hmm, no. I've heard of people getting brain tumors. 3/4 of the population happen to live under telephone lines (which have very little radiation anyway) so some of them are bound to get tumors.. and I suppose 20 years isn't long enough to see the "explosion" of brain tumors from cell phones, huh?
Our brain and heart produce their own magnetic field that is much lower than 60hz from modern electrical appliances. It's like you're constantly subjecting your fields to a heavy metal concert when you think these fields don't have an impact on the body.
Think about it, you're putting a microwave transmitter up to your brain.
"Radiation from cell phones can possibly cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization. The agency now lists mobile phone use in the same 'carcinogenic hazard' category as lead, engine exhaust and chloroform." http://www.cnn.com/2011/HEALTH/05/31/who.cell.phones/index.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Again, enjoy your strong opinions. I respect you as a human being although we're polar opposites in every other sense.
