    As mentioned: a cage would be very useful, however its not
    a 'magick bullet'.  A cage can require debugging, for best
    effect, but will almost certainly help, regardless of 
    the type of ground connection.

    (Clarification to my earlier comment, re 'fire sprinkler
     outlets':   I interpreted the suggestion as using a
     sprinkler _nozzle_ as psuedo ground.  The plumbing on
     those has slow switches,which communicate with
     Fire Department, typically.  _any_ modification, 
     bumps up against 'legalities'.)
