Hi Bob,
It can be Very dangerous, as the CRT is a potential high voltage source. 
An EMac shouldn't be too bad, but I Highly recommend cleaning the screen 
with the power off.  None of any other cables except the power need to 
be off.
Use only anti static cleaner, such as "Screen-Clean" by "asalco", lots 
of computer stores sell such stuff, even Forest City Surplus. "Windex" 
is not recommended!
