	Well, maybe it takes a certain threshold, or maybe it requires
lengthy exposure.  They *are* sensitive because that's how the phenomenon
was discovered...  Hmmmm, I wonder what's the biggest magnet outside of
something like an MRI that would be handy...  The one that lifts the junk
cars at the scrap yard?  Wonder if they'd let me stand under it with a laptop.

	Heh, even if I'm totally wrong at least this thread was more fun then
diagnosing the latest variation of "My laptop makes a funny sound and 
smokes when I plug it in". :-)
