Steven, what is this in reference to?  It looks like a reply, but there is 
no parent thread with this subject, nor is there any context in your message 
indicating such.

Is this a new law?

The likelyhood of damage to a component is inversely proportional to the 
number you have available, and directly proportional to its cost.

I only raise this 'cos once again I've just destroyed a chip that cost more 
than the rest of the circuit put together. How come I never blow a cheap 
resistor?

Another law might be that: The likelyhood of destroying an electronic 
component is proportional to the number of joints you need to unsolder.
