yes i know that with many modern cars you can "get a jolt from my electrode" when you get out.
that is only part of my problem, the car is a chrysler but it happens to most cars out here, being in a desert, there is a lot of sand, this stuff seems to leap on to my car even when its parked in my shop with the doors shut, you could shovel the stuff out of the door shuts and inside the rear lights.
in my locost it fills every appeture and sticks to the car like it was covered in wet glue, the bodywork and the interior will be covered every time i take it out, it even gets into the instrument cluster.
so i think i will get a california duster but the parafin wax dries out in about one summer so that isn't the solution.
now we are getting strange here when i ask, has anyone heard tails of peoples kids that won't go to sleep unless they are in the car, and they go right off to sleep.
well it seems that having asked several of my friends who live here, they do seem to think they fall asleep at the wheel more often than would be normal but put it down to, a. being old. b. a long boring drive from the nearest town to home, c. it is usually at the end of the day
but when pressed, they will admit to it happening in the morning or any time of the day and it doesn't just happen towards the end of a journey so this eliminates the "long boring drive" and "the end of the day" as reasons and given that they are not all old farts like me, there goes the last excuse.
i had considered the change in altitude as a potential customer with the associated change in barometric pressure but this happens when the altitude doesn't change very much.
so i ask the question, "does the team know anything about positive ions and their effects on fategue while driving and its associated links in an extremely dry climate and vehicles in motion or just parked and their occupants perpencity to fall asleep".
dudes, the dust thing is so bad, that i tack ragged a hood to paint it and it was covered in dust and anything else in the air before i could pick up the spray gun, it was a calm day with no wind inside the shop with the doors and windows closed.
this is an indicator of how dry it is, my shop had the electrical ground connected to the rebar in the footings but was not a good enough ground and now i have 3 10 foot earth spikes for my shop and house spread over my property interconnected with 1/4" solid copper.
the dryness and the dust are indicators of very high levels of static electricity, therefore, high levels of positive ions.
of course, i could just be tired old fart who can't keep awake.
