Strange "Hot Skin" Electrical Issue - Getting minor Shocks

Here is an experiment anyone with a DIGITAL VOM can try.

With one hand using the insulation of one probe, hold probe electrode to any AC GROUND. With the other hand, grab the electrode of the other probe.

In my case, at my desk, I measured 1.3 VAC sitting and about 1.1 VAC standing.

I think the only thing unusual about the OPs setup is that he has a grounded metal conductor that comes in contact with a sensitive area of skin.
