No, no! I was talking about the one where it *didn't* smoke. That's what constitutes a successful "smoke test". :-) i.e., not consolations, but congrats that it _didn't_ smoke. You have had a *successful* smoke test, right? If not, I'll just go back to lurking - this is a fascinating saga. :-)
BTW, just FYI, everybody makes smoke come out of stuff. (those parts run on magic smoke, you see, and as long as you don't let the smoke out, everything should still be nominally OK.) It's when it doesn't let the smoke out that it's something special. :-) :-) :-)
