when someone is "wearing a wire"...?
467203
The law on this topic is very, very complicated but the key fact is that the police are allowed to use "reasonable deception" in the course of an investigation, provided that the police do not encourage the suspect or person under surveillance to do anything that he or she was not already going to do. For example, it's totally OK for the police to pose as drug dealers and allow potential customers to approach them and buy drugs, and use that act as evidence against them, but it is not OK for the police to SOLICIT the buyers. So in the case of the "are you wearing a wire" question, it is totally OK for the cop to lie and say "no" because that falls under "reasonable deception."\n\nAs for signing a contract stating that you are not a cop, or not wearing a wire, any contract made in preparation for or during an illegal act is null and void. If you hire a hit man to kill your wife and he takes your money but doesn't kill her, you can't sue him...

I have the same problem, so does my father.\nI think the electromagnetic field of a person has alot to do with it.\nWe all produce electromagnetic energy,this is an actual measurable force, ex. EKG, EEG etc.\nAnd some people produce it at different wavelengths, so it stands to figure that someone is gonna screw up something with one.

Not allowed?  By whom?  I have friends at work who wear them occasionally.  One of them owns a couple of Utilikilts.

you are almost right, electrical ground is allways relative to a higer potential source like a live wire and the current flows toward ground from the higer source, when you ar isolated (you have rubber shoes, you have a high resistance in the way of the current), there still a current flow, but it is so small (nano amperes) that you body cant feel it

Unplug it and then tear up the cord some enough to show the wires and then point it out to someone, you know like you are scared to use it, fire hazard and all that.\n\nLike a mouse has been gnawin on it or something

Usually underground wires are surrounded by lots of insulation. Plus, the ground itself is an insulator. So even if it does get wet, the power won't go very far. Then there is the fact that a wire is just a wire. Wires do not really short out from water. It is the devices they connect that short out.

Only that you keep the string hidden so that no one knows you are wearing one.  Also, that you keep it changed often so that you don't have any leakage.  :)

I call it proper punishment.\nIf you touch something and get grounded, you probably shouldn't have touched it. Didn't momma teach you not to touch things that don't belong to you?\n\nYou're discharging a static electricity charge from your body to ground. \nAs you walk around your shoes build a static charge on your skin. If the humidity is low your body doesn't discharge the static as readily as it would if it were more humid.\nWhen you touch something metal your body is discharging the energy back to earth.

The person doing is the "or" the person to/reciving is the "ee".

When a bird stands on the wire, there is no path for the electricity, since the bird is not touching the ground or any other different item. If you touched a wire, you would get electrocuted because you are touching the ground as well.

There are actually special shoes that can be purchased to minimize electrocution risk. We had them in the military, but if the voltage is high enough or there is moisture around ...ZAP
