[c-nsp] Grounding your 6500's?

Cisco specifically states that you "must" ground 6500 chassis, both at
the chassis and the power supply ground lugs (separate from the AC (or
DC) ground plant).

Does anyone actually do this?  Our director got a "horror story" from
someone else who didn't ground their 6500's and so we're looking into
it.  It seems pretty nuts to have to run separate ground lines to each
switch and I've never seen it in the field, but I'm just curious.
