Re: [TCML] If He Starts Nodding Off, Try Another Million Volts

Although NO2 is the most common (%-wise) nitrogen compound formed during HV electrical discharge, a small amount of all possible oxides of nitrogen are formed. This is one explanation; another is that surviving any perceived close encounter with disaster causes a feeling of euphoria in normal humans.

I can dig it.  If we ran indoors there wouldn't be any paint on the walls 
pretty soon.

We have sort of a David Blaine type situation, and if the wind is calm there 
is a pretty heavy buildup sometimes.

Often the performers report a feeling of euphoria after a 
performance--anyone else notice that?  If you look up an article by 
Electrice in TCBA Vol. 6 # 1, she mentions the same effect.  I can't find 
any reference to this kind of effect in the literature from either ozone or 
NOx (except N2O, of course).
