once burned - learned, don't do this!

Well I wasn't thinking ahead -hope I can help you prevent a dumb mistake. Last night I was doing some electical work in the 90 degree New Jersey heat. Of course I was sweating, but I was nowhere near a live circuit so I ignored it. Well my new Multi Meter was next to me - guess what? Only 2 or 3 drops of sweat sucessfully shorted the whole unit out. Duh - I should have thought of this, maybe if I'd read a post about it I'd have thought about it.
