Gee, Doctor G...  a rather sobering reminder of the
danger involved.

My friends laughed at me when I hired an electrician to
finish some work I had started - just adding extra lines
and wall outlets in the basement - but hired an electrician
to review, test, and complete the hookup in the "fuse box."

You and the electrician understand - and I don't mind his
laughing on his way to the bank with my check.

My charity club had a speaker recently... we purchased
a defibrillator for the local fire dept, and they saved his
life with it.  His stopping in to say thanks for the donation
made our efforts seem worthwhile.

 You can only be brought of
fibrillation with a defibrillator to give a massive short shock to stop
the heart and let it bounce into a normal rhythm again.
