Recent exciting experiences with various types of capacitors (ALWAYS make
sure that oilfilled caps are discharged and strapped before you put them in
the junkbox!) were painfully recalled when I heard this;

Miss Farad was pretty and sensual,
And charged with a reckless potential.
But a rascal named Ohm
Conducted her home.
Her decline was, alas, exponential.
