Anyone been thru this before? The problem with tonic water is it's *sweet*; check the calorie content compared to, say, Coke. I've seen enough reports of cards surviving the laundry that I'd actually rinse it carefully in distilled water, then let it dry very thoroughly, and then try it in a card reader (not in the camera). I guess, if it worked fine in the card reader, and wasn't stiff or funny going in or coming out, I might eventually let it back in my camera. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
