I need to find out more about Earth proton emissions - Schumann resonance seems to be involved too. My brain is bursting at the mo with all this strange physics stuff, (I must need the grounding but barefoot in the grass is too extreme.)

I might end up buying one of those mats (above) - I can use it in bed and at the PC - if it does nothing else, at least I wont get any more static shocks from my PC tower (which started me off on this track in the first place)

Seems like women are prone to static electrickery, when face ache worked at the Dowry St call center, she and her work mates were always getting static shocks, I never felt any when I picked her up from work, turned out to be the type of carpet and humidity of the air with all the central heating on. She some times got a shock when she opened the car door.
Not all appliances these days have an actual earth connection, although they have a three pin plug on them. How about a layer of kitchen foil under the carpet where your computer is.

Retlaw.
