heh. they used to do that when new if you used them in a room over 85F :-)
I once (back when s-100 was current) tried to run several CP/M machines
with 8" floppies in a un-airconditioned room over the summer. big
mistake. We ended up with a lot of floppies with clear bands.
With an A/C running at 75F the problem went away, but some brands did
better than others.
