Please DO worry about electric shocks!  They can easily kill you.  If an 
engineer (like me) receives a shock, it's because they've made a stupid 
mistake.  If a "beginner" gets a shock, it's usually because they haven't 
sufficient knowledge to do the job.....

Please avoid electric shocks at all costs - the skull - and - crossbones 
symbol on the back of your monitor isn't just there for decoration!
