"Nitrogen-filled" is all the vogue right now. How about some "nitrogen-filled" water ?:-)

You're selling hydrogen? :)

Speaking of... iirc..Typical solder flux in solder is acidic around soldering temperatures. I wonder if putting bit of soap in my sponge would that help neutralize the flux and extend tip life?

That should be either "advance orders", or "orders from the retarded". "Orders in advance" would work, but only in a slightly different sentence.

Oh, my Wallace and Gromit mouse pad works fine with my Logitech optical mouse.

Obviously not tedious enough - you responded to the post. I was hoping to parody your elephantine attempt at humour, but I obviously failed to to be as pedestrian as I'd hoped.

Irritating if you get a glass desk (eg. in a hotel). Doesn't move at all. A pad of quadrille paper makes an ideal optical mouse pad. Besides, if you spill guacaomole or scotch on it, just tear off the top piece!

If you really want to clean it, denatured alcohol helps. Last month I've pulled all keys from my nice 10 year old Microsoft Natural Keyboard (if it is not a very cheap keyboard and you are carefully, it is no problem to pull them) and cleaned the case and each key with paper towels and cotton swabs. Now looks and feels like new.

Got one too... When I have to use a regular keyboard, it seems 'wrong'.
