When the aliens come for you and want to test thier new neon transformers would you want them to use 
	A. Two short wire leads across your wrists to connect two units?
	     OR
	B. Two long wire leads wrapped around your body to connect two units? 	
It could be that the circuit you have been involved with recently had a or a few loose connections. I have 
found that a  single loose BX connector can ruin an entire wiring job. Please don't think I am trumpeting, I 
merely want to understand. I do feel that when discussing wiring it would be important to note if it was or 
wasn't a MPG circuit. No different than noting the type of secondary insulation of the installation. 
Besides, you can employ an MPG cicuit  in any type of secondary insullation, can't you?

I am still awed by the results of midpoint grounding a circuit. 
Capacitance, (Corona) , seems to be decreased which in turn decreases the production of  ozone, etc...
You can physically feel the differance. Which will it be human, A OR B?

The piece of post above was an experiment done in shop during the earlier 
discussions of midpoint grounding. (Thanks for the LINK Kenny. Great Job.)
