magic smoke



I actually told a customer that recently--electrons and all that was a bunch
of BS.  It all really works on smoke and when you release the magic smoke...
well you know.

They guy I was with from my company almost blew a fuse when I said that.
And the customer sounded like they were buying it.  LOL

More money than sense.

I straightened them out but it was pretty damn funny.

Sorry to hear about your car but what cause it to burn anyway?  A
switch/fuse combo isn't going to do much good if there is something else
causing failures.
