Crazy
 
('tis always better to ressurect an old thread then start one on the same topic, right?)

Sooo, my old moniter crapped out (I have a new one now), and I like taking apart electronic stuff (Amp, speakers, several old car radios, coffee grinder, VCR, cordless phone, printers, probably a bunch of other stuff I've forgotten).
Moniters have scary voltage running through them though, and I've heard the capacitors can hold a charge for a long time (it's been unplugged for about a month now).
Is there any way to drain all the nastyness out so I can partake of dissasembaly without killing myself?
I don't have any sort of professional electronic dealies (multimeter, soldering iron, <insert thing I've never heard of>)
