While roaming the net, I tripped across this:

The 'Let Go Current for Men and Women'.
Pretty stupid to post links to a power point presentation. They open up
your system to a number of attack avenues. I did not open the page.
Ha! I can imagine the posters:
'Male and female volunteers wanted to participate in electrocution
experiment'
I'm not surprised the graph has
'average for 28 women'
'average for 134 men'
I think many women would be too chicken and not participate.
Notice that women let go at lower currents.
Scared with sweaty palms?? (Dunno how the test was done.)
More likely higher count of skin surface sensory nerves, matched with
typically lower skin resistance due to a typically higher skin moisture
content.
You're a trip. Any women that signed up for that thing were likely
Macho guys might be acting like:
'K..hit me...... Arrrrrrrghhhhhh!...'
Then let go..
'What was that? 20mA... Ha! I beat Joey's 16mA.. '
Women might be thinking:
'I feel a little tingling. That's scary. I'm going to let go.'
burly Amazon Warrior types.
Sorry, 1st time posting a .ppt link. I didn't know it was a security
risk.
Sometimes I find power point stuff that's interesting.
