 _________________________________________
/  A sheet of paper crossed my desk the   \
| other day and as I read it, realization |
| of a basic truth came over me. So       |
| simple! So obvious we couldn't see it.  |
| John Knivlen, Chairman of Polamar       |
| Repeater Club, an amateur radio group,  |
| had discovered how IC circuits work. He |
| says that smoke is the thing that makes |
| ICs work because every time you let the |
| smoke out of an IC circuit, it stops    |
| working. He claims to have verified     |
| this with thorough testing.             |
|                                         |
| I was flabbergasted! Of course! Smoke   |
| makes all things electrical work.       |
| Remember the last time smoke escaped    |
| from your Lucas voltage regulator       |
| Didn't it quit working? I sat and       |
| smiled like an idiot as more of the     |
| truth dawned. It's the wiring harness   |
| that carries the smoke from one device  |
| to another in your Mini, MG or Jag. And |
| when the harness springs a leak, it     |
| lets the smoke out of everything at     |
| once, and then nothing works. The       |
| starter motor requires large quantities |
| of smoke to operate properly, and       |
| that's why the wire going to it is so   |
| large.                                  |
|                                         |
| Feeling very smug, I continued to       |
| expand my hypothesis. Why are Lucas     |
| electronics more likely to leak than    |
| say Bosch? Hmmm... Aha!!! Lucas is      |
| British, and all things British leak!   |
| British convertible tops leak water,    |
| British engines leak oil, British       |
| displacer units leak hydrostatic fluid, |
| and I might add Brititsh tires leak     |
| air, and the British defense unit leaks |
| secrets... so naturally British         |
| electronics leak smoke.                 |
|                                         |
