I used to be able to do that with the nickle plated antistatic bags
that parts came in back in 1980. The ohmmeter would measure several
hundred ohms. But nowadays all I can measure is an open. I just
tried it again, measured open even on the 200M range.

Yeah, it's been like that for at least 15 years. Anti-static work mats
aren't conductive either. So what principle do they use?
