[AT] Discharge Chains

[Mike M]

I have no good answer for you Ray, I can only assume that auto and truck 
manufacturers designed a better mousetrap, if the problem was static 
buildup.  I remember as a kid in the 70's seeing cars with what appeared 
to be rubber straps hanging from cars. I never did know what they were 
for. Then again those were the days of water injection systems as well.

Regards,
Mike M
