   Alright, I've got a bit of an issue...and it happens every year around   
   Winter, but this year seems to worse than the last few...   
      
   Every time I move, every time I get up and walk, I build up HUGE amounts   
   of static electricity. I'll pick up, say, a Saturn controller and I'll   
   *actually shock it*. I think I'm shocking the Saturn too, because the   
   video signal goes completely nuts and you can't see anything but blocks   
   and blurs of colors. Happens with the Xbox too...   
      
   Am I killing these systems? How is a plastic controller even shockable?   
   I thought it had to be metal or something.   
      
   Anyone know of anything that can dissipate static electricity? Maybe   
   some sort of wrist ring or something(I've seen these used by people who   
   work on PCs quite a bit)? I try my best to touch something metal to just   
   release the charges, but sometimes I don't even get it, I'm just sitting   
   on the couch and all of the sudden, even though I've been playing for a   
   while, I'll shock the controller(and thus, the system as well).   
      
   KKC, Ted, Scott, anyone: Any help here?
