I am like the fellow who gets shocked frequently.  It happens to me no matter 
what time of year, the amount of humidity or what clothing/shoes I am 
wearing.  It gets especially bad in winter when the air is drier but gets 
better when I use fabric softener.  Excesive use of fabric softener will 
shorten the life of your clothing so I try not to use it too much.  However, 
in warmer months, it does not appreciable help the problem.  Is there any way 
to stop it at least in the warm months?  I get fussed at my family, friends 
and co-workers because I "shock" them.
