Back home we used to have one of those electric heater/stove made of clay with metal coil(spring) that heats up the pot? Well, once upon a time, a piece of food was stuck on the coil. While the heater was still plugged in, I tried to remove that debris from the heating coil with steel spoon. You can guess what happened, I got a zinger of an electric shock. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Hmmm.... come to think of, maybe that's why I am little slow :-)
