Comments on: USB Flash out of the Washer and into the Dryer http://keith-hair.net/blog/2008/08/03/usb-flash-out-of-the-washer-and-into-the-dryer/ Scripting is fun like any other hobby Wed, 07 Jan 2009 12:37:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: David http://keith-hair.net/blog/2008/08/03/usb-flash-out-of-the-washer-and-into-the-dryer/#comment-149 David Fri, 05 Dec 2008 17:37:14 +0000 http://keith-hair.com/blog/?p=21#comment-149 I did the same thing with my USB drive, it's a Kingston DataTraveler. I sat and thought for a few minutes whether I should stick it in my computer to see if it still worked. I came to the conclusion that water would not have any effect on the drive unless it was plugged in still wet, and I figured if my clothes could withstand the dryer's heat, then a bit of plastic and metal would easily hold up. Shame the same can't be said for the money I had in my pocket! You should start an experiment with different objects. Kinda like "will it blend?" but "will it wash and dry and still work?"...
