You assume that all charges flow freely. The Electron Affinity for many molecules-materials in the earth-earth surface, buildings etc, ranges up to several electron volts.

But again, this doesn't take into account the fact that charges flow freely on the Earth surface. Could you find no applet where charges can move freely on the surface of conductors?
