I feel your pain my man. Generally I love winter because I prefer cold weather but JESUS the static charges I build up are an ass-pain! It doesn't seem to matter what shoes I wear, if its winter I'm a human capacitor. Sometimes the shock is so great my arm will go numb. I had to leave the grocery store once without my groceries because every time I reached for an item and touched a metal shelf I'd get a huge shock. Whenever I can I try touching metal every couple of feet to disharge before it builds up too much. The little shocks aren't too bad but if I let it go a bit the shock is freaking wicked. When they run the central heat at work I think I could pull an Uncle Fester and power a light bulb by putting it in my mouth. I don't know the solution but you are not alone.
