Umm...
Very origional name. LOL.
I used those caps just because I was interested in Lyden jars. And i'm not 
part of the geek group. but they do make great caps. You can charge them up 
by hooking the one terminal( either the outside or the top) to the NST and 
drawing an arc from the other terminal to the other terminal of the NST. 
Then You can hand them to our freinds( or enemies) and tell them to touch 
the top. Then watch as they do it. LOL. I've shocked myself several times 
that way.

I don't really thing I'm that much farther along than you. Actually, 
chances are, your farther along than me, because I don't even know what I'm 
doing anymore. LOL.

Good luck, and don't kill yourself(or your friends).

                       Steven Steele
