Today I learned that if your keyboard is maimed in a bowl-dropping accident and you have to offgas a new one quickly, you can use a hairdryer to heat it for over an hour if you put the hairdryer on a cookie rack to keep it from overheating. The thing is that if you want to get the whole keyboard, you have to move the hairdryer periodically, and if you get it too close, you can do something like accidentally melt the 'm.' So then I learned that you can, for the most part, melt it back.

The important thing to take away from this experience is that if you are recovering from an environmental injury, you should avoid breaking computer components that could gas you when you point a hairdryer at their replacements.
