Ah, that explains it.  No cat! And certainly none with a cold or
allergies ;-)

I find the dust comes off with a dry clean soft rag (or even one of
those fake feather dusters), I I slap my clients hands if they even make
a gesture toward my CRT ;-)

I have been known to eat an orange near my monitor, and spray it with
OJ. ( usually clean that right away, with a mildly damp rag.

And this may be weird, but my monitor doesn't seem to create a static
field (might be the humidity level here).
