I think I was 11 or 12 and just got bit by the electronics bug.  Bought a  
small VOM from Radio Shack, and then proceeded to measure the resistance of the 
power outlet :)

Been there, done that, about the same age. Judging by the spectacular effect on 
that formerly straight needle in that little Lafayette VOM, it is amazing how 
much momentum it must have had when it hit the right side of that meter case. 
Knew better but was in a hurry trying to figure out where my latest project 
failure had blown a fuse. It wasn't before that wall receptacle. With a start 
like that, I've only improved. However, I've not been notified that the PA100 
beta test materials have been shipped off to my new enterprise, Infirmaties of 
Aging And Otherwise Testing Services, yet.
