Barry,

 BM> As long as only an 'oops' and not an 'ohhh sheeeet'....!

  It can be both. Sort of like the meme, where the baby has a
horrified look on his face, and exclaims "OMG!! That wasn't a
f@rt!!". Or, as they describe it in the hospital...a "Code Brown".
How's that for being original?? <G> And, apparently it happened
in another room (the patient pooped in the bed)...as the female
nurse who was supposed to give me a bath, got tied up in cleaning
up the crap...literally.

  Speaking of capacitors, the air conditioner guy had to replace that in
the central air unit here, and add refrigerant...cost me $245. But, at
least it's comfortable in here, compared to what it is outside.

  Some other components need a heat-sink (not sure how that's spelled) to
dispel the excess temperature.
