I think it is a great service when really interesting demonstrations are
brought into our schools or other realms that children can
see/experience. The folks here that produce such nice sparking and
arcing equipment and demos really deserve a kudos!

Regarding the Pyro aspect, I think KVA has gone far in getting a TC
involved in SFX, but they really are a small fish in the sea. Many in
SFX (and media, etc.) will use the tried and true effects, as realism
isn't really the product!

I have done a number of demonstrations with high voltage equipment to
children from age 10 up to high school
level.  My demonstrations are always a huge hit among the students and
believe me, they don't have to know all the gritty details about how
they work to be inspired.
