   > I don't know the reason, but all the time I get nightmares, where someone   
   gets zapped by high voltage electricity, sometimes when he tries to sabotage a   
   circuit breaker, switching off the power to a whole town. Yesterday, I dreamed   
   that 400 kV live    
   wires were passing outside a house's window and door, which were permanently   
   locked, and some fool unlocked the door, on his attempt to lock it again his   
   finger was caught in it, the wire pulled him, and I saw him zapped to   
   oblivion. I regularly have    
   such nightmares. that can mean four things: (a) I am a bad electrician (b)   
   electricity, esp. high voltage one, is dangerous and should not be fooled   
   with. (c) I am worrying too much about bad things happening to people,   
   regarding electrical things, and    
   their (sometimes) idiotic attempts to repair space heaters etc. by themselves.   
   (d) all of the above   
      
      
   That sounds intense! High-voltage electricity, just like some of the cutting   
   tools demands precision and respect, one wrong move can be dangerous. Maybe   
   your mind is wired, pun    
   intended, to stay cautious about electrical hazards. Hopefully, the nightmares   
   ease up, but at least they serve as a reminder of the importance of safety and   
   the right tools for the job!
