That demonstrates what AI can do for or against us.    As I've often 
said, if it is found on the internet it may be a YES or a NO, or a 
maybe, correct or totally wrong.   Always verify you sources.

And yes, most all of the big box hardware stores will have a nice 
selection of thumb screws, both US and Metric.

> Thanks to everyone who answered my grounding screw question! Until I sort my junk box full of small screws, nuts, washers etc, it was easier to go to Lowe?s and buy some 4-40, 6-32 and 8-32 hardware. BTW here?s what the AI wizards said:
> ChatGPT 6-32 x .5 in length
> Gemini 4-40 x .187 in length
> Copilot 6-32 x .25 in length
> Perplexity 6-32 or 8-32 and .25 or .5 in length
> Grok 6-32 x .25 to .5 in length
> 6-32 x .5 in appears to be the correct size and length.
