RE: Question

Where is the complete circuit when charges move from a Vandegraff generator to a person on an insulated platform?
The other thing to think about are all the "unseen circuits" in any system, the ones that don't appear on the schematics, formed from all the parasitic capacitances and inductances that litter any real system. They can make complete circuits exist where the schematics say they don't, especially when you talk about transient events.

Also not being argumentative, just looking for a discussion.
