Just for "fun" (out of sheer boredom) one day, I filled a metal soda bottle cap with CA. Attached the cap to the (-) terminal of my 12Kv supply and held the (+) terminal in my fingers above the cap full of CA. When I turned the power on, in about 2 seconds it looked like my fingers were covered in fiberglass insulation... Apparently CA conducts electricity pretty well, and it had flew out of the cap in cotton candy-like strands and stuck to my fingers.
