It's possible, but dangerous.  The current coming out of the wall is not

Welcome to the ever changing sig!  It changes every time I log in, so 
don't flame me if it's a little long.  Enjoy!

History is curious stuff
	You'd think by now we had enough
Yet the fact remains I fear
	They make more of it every year.
