Mr. Heene then told the operator that there was a possibility that if his son were inside, he could be in danger because for one minute, in a five-minute cycle, the balloon “emits a million volts on the outer skin.” Whaaaaat?

You do not "emit" volts. Volts are a measure of EM potential. You can emit AMPS of power at a VOLTAGE, not VOLTS.

I hate Scientific idjits. Even if he WAS joking, he should get his shizzzzzzznit right. I mean, we gotta think of the KIDS!!!!
