We used to have a drinking night here, but your truly
couldn't be bothered by the beer everyone else was
having that night and opted for Maker's Mark on an
empty stomach... that drove the nail in the Tuesday
Night coffin (at our office).
And I want to point out: the diminished capacity
for judgement begins *before* you had the first
drink. Blaming the alcohol is engaging in bad faith...

When I was working on a VAX 6000 once, the combination
of +5V @ > 100A and human-appendages-with-nearby-metal

quaintly described as an opportunity to lose an appendage and
simultaneously cauterize the wound :-)

Stone dead, I should think!
All PSUs deserve respect. This one sounds
like it deserves more than most :-)
