Regarding that animated GIF, I'm curious what would make a saltwater cap do 
that?  I'm hardly an expert (and I've generally avoided SWCs for MMC) but it 
seems that the distance between the "plates" isn't any different in that 
config with the severe arcing than it is in Greg's, which seems to work so 
well.  If you can explain this, please do  -- it killed the cat so what's one 
more?
