OT digression: there was a case in France where a bloke electrified
his safe after a spate of burglaries. He stuck a big notice on it
warning of the risk. House gets burgled again, burglar is
electrocuted, police investigate, and discover burglar is illiterate.
House owner is done for manslaughter/murder.
Most likely UL, but a nice story.
