Thank you gentlemen for your kind and helpful replies.  Where I was confused was that particular capacitor is isolated and had a floating ground. I wasn't sure how critical that is vs. a direct chasis ground.  Also, the schematic doesn't really make the distinction between the floating ground components vs chasis ground.   Thanks again guys!
