*There are places that do not recognize that static discharge will destroy electronics. My company at the time had a high abnormal circuit card failure rate. Circuit cards were returned to the factory in Australia. They sent some boards to the university there and used a scanning electron microscope to determine failure. Static discharge was the culprit! Plus some boards were damaged in such a way that the boards would quit working after a short time. Well the company put together a 'Chinese style re-education anti-static seminar'. The amount of static that can destroy circuitry is below human perception*
