Well, every couple of minutes I take a grip on the heater attached to the wall.

My nervousness from RAM bars comes from bad exoerience. In older systems I happened to touch the little memory compnents on them accidentally with a fingertip on two occasions in past years. In both cases, that was it and ended with replacing the memory bar with a new one. I hate RAM bars.

when I was y small school boy, I could not wear watches, mechn aical robust watches. They stopped working. Non-working watches by ma grandfather or my parents occasionally started to work when I touched them. And this to a reasonable, logical coldblooded Vernunftsmenschen like me - that is not fair!
