Connie,
Bold repair persons get zapped by capacitor cans or rather the 
individual sections. The FIRST time. Then they hopefully become old 
repair persons.

Old repair persons know to have a bleeder resistor on a couple of 
insulated probes to discharge those caps, even if the set has been 
turned off, before they every probe around inside.  Same for the HV on a 
CRT from a TV or other HV scope.

There are no Old, Bold repair persons.
