I prefer to do it "hot" since I can see what I am doing. Regardless, I once
discharged a CRT fully (at least as far as I could touch the high voltage
connection and not get a shock.) I left it alone for a while and went back
to pick it up making the mistake of getting my hand too near the high
voltage connection. After making the proper explatives deleted, I now always
discharge the tube just before I am going to do something with it.
