Feb 23, 2013 at 5:23 comment added Kaz By the way, in high school, I took apart a floppy disc (removed it from its plastic casing), and washed finger prints from it with soap and running water, then dried and resassembled. All data read perfectly.
Feb 23, 2013 at 5:22 comment added Kaz The bad stuff happens if the circuit is powered up while being submerged. Also, immersion for extended periods in water that is dirty, or excessively acidic or alkaline. I mean if you toss a circuit board into a river and then find it on an ocean beach somewhere, all bets are off.
