In Odessa, TX, I once went potty after doing exactly
that and drew a two inch arc from the water in the
john. OUCH!!!

However, I have heard
horror stories of purplish cornea discharges from antennas which are a
sight to behold.

One of the strangest cases of corona that I ever
saw was a ham driving down CA Highway 1 near Monterrey
in the fog. It looked for all the world like he had
a reddish light on top of his whip. The CA highway
patrol even stopped him for it. I don't know if
he got a ticket or not.
