Sounds like a
variant of the "more magic" switch. :)
I'd first check out my shoes.
Could be ESD.
I go barefoot pretty much whenever I can get away with it and I don't
consider it completely boneheaded (occasionally even on city streets).
At work, I rarely get any static for it (er, so to speak), but, when
asked, I point out that it cuts down ESD potential substantially -
while I actually started it because I'm more comfortable that way, it
_is_ true.... :)
