Smoking around computers

I had a machine from one of the ITT Tech schools the same way - cannibus keyboard. I think that the pot smoke is actually worse than even the heaviest of non-filter cigs smoke - the residues from a pot smoker's PC really are funky when they've sat in storage for a while but I have noticed that machines with either residue (pot or cigs) don't tend to have mice live in them when sotred - I tried this by putting a bag of tobacco (cloth bag) inside and purposely left a filler plate off - no mice. The machine without had all sorts of acorn shells, poop, nesting materials, etc though. -> -----Original Message----- -> From: owner-classiccmp(a)classiccmp.org -> [mailto:owner-classiccmp@classiccmp.org]On Behalf Of Fred Cisin -> (XenoSoft) -> Sent: Monday, December 10, 2001 11:27 AM -> To: classiccmp(a)classiccmp.org -> Subject: Re: Smoking around computers -> -> -> On Mon, 10 Dec 2001, Richard Erlacher wrote: -> > Bear in mind that I'm a FORMER smoker, and that there's no -> Catholic like a -> > convert, as they say ... -> > I've disassembled a number of CDROM drives that clearly suffered from -> -> D'ya mean that retractable ashtray holder? -> -> -> I once encountered a TRS-80 whose keyboard wasn't working due to a -> chronic accumulation of marijuana seeds that had fallen in. -> -> -> ->
