Jim Phaserman 0 Posted February 14, 2004 Welcome to Smoke-based Electronics 101. The theory that electrical systems run on a closed-circuit smoke based energy system dates from the earliest days of electronics. the basic theory is that as long as the smoke stays IN the device, it will work fine. but when the smoke escapes, you start having problems.
