Thanks for the kind words, for years when I was a wet behind the ears pup many older gents helped me out and nowadays I figure its payback time and I'm glad to help when I can, and since my semi retired law practice keeps me on the computer a lot, its not too hard to chat on here.
On your "shocking" experience its pretty hard to get across 240 volts since its line to line only while 120 is line to many nearby items such as iron bars or a kitchen sink etc. But I cant say sittin here if you were exposed to 240 or 120 butttttttttt if it was 240 you can obviously get killed much easier.
The chart I posted above tells what current it takes to cause muscle contractions and makes it hard to "let go" if youre across a hot voltage source. Yes its current NOT Voltage thru the body and especially the old ticker that messes you up but since I = V/R the more voltage the more current and thats why if you actually got across 240 you may have been killed. The worse path is if the current flows past or in your heart which is why electricians are taught to NEVER have both hands in an electrical panel as if they get across voltage the current path is right near the heart.
I gotta run and thanks again for your kind words I appreciate that
