    Exactly what I was thinking...


    That kind old lady stopped the rain for us.
    She said it would only make us cold, and miserable, and sick.
    We thanked her and hugged her and she walked away smiling warmly.
    I miss the puddles...

    From the kinda-sorta-trusted source, Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pholcidae

    "When the spider is threatened by a touch to the web or when too large a prey becomes entangled, the spider vibrates rapidly in a gyrating motion in its web and becomes blurred and difficult to focus on. For this reason pholcids have sometimes been called "vibrating spiders", although they are not the only species to exhibit this behaviour. Doing so might make it difficult for a predator to see exactly where the spider is, may be intended to signal an assumed rival to leave, or may increase the chances of capturing insects that have just brushed their web and are still hovering nearby .[1] If the spider continues to feel harassed it will retreat into a corner or drop from its web and escape."

    Granted, your chair is not a web... I assume... but it says under threat, it'll vibrate, and that it's not the only species to do that... sooooo... there ya go.

    From the previously posted Wiki excerpt it seems like a good idea to charge it.
