Static electricity precautions

Of late I had some concerns about some possible adverse effects of static in the observatory....

The exact same thing happened again this weekend, again a very dry night, me in synthetic polar-fleece etc, nylon boat carpet in the obs..... seems a recipe for static build-up...

I've decided to try and antistatic the obs, and myself, looking at antistatic mats/grounding and even esd shoes.... Does anyone practice any antistatic precautions in their obs??
