Yeah I think so. Everything helps. I forgot to mention I even blue screened the laptop once . I had my hand holding the mouse on the Alu table and reached for the focuser... Zap! But then again I'm prone to statics. On a windy day I'll always zap on the car door when getting out. I even zap people. My mum's the same. Even worse. Maybe it's biological? Some people retain charge more than others. I don't know..
