Now this one sounds too good to be true. Maybe it’s just that I’m congenitally un-German – but what is a person from the milder climes doing solving this ancient human curse, anyway? And aren’t 10,000-volts just possibly a wee bit of overkill (even for a nation that 60 years ago perfected the production line approach to mass-murder)?

Such misgivings aside – IF this thing is real, there is just one more specification it needs to be able to meet so as to become the Best Invention Ever – can the contraption fit into the lid of an Esky?
