It is reasonable to expect that genetic influences on traits like IQ should become less important as one gains experiences with age. Surprisingly, the opposite occurs.

Here?s what I did to my coffee-flooded IBM keyboard:
* rinse with floods of cold water, no detergent
* shake out as much water as possible
* dry with hairdryer set on warm setting, taking care not to get too hot
* leave on a shelf for two weeks to dry really thoroughly

i'll not unplug it... i will dry it with a hair dryer :)         i'll tell you what happen next
see? the space key is half disabled now :)

Yes, but the notebook's keyboard is a different topic! ;) It was more serious! :D And it was hot tea, btw.

A friend of mine once spilled coffee on a notebook and it broke down completely and wouldn't turn on again. He had to get a new one in the end.
But we can't be quite sure.

the same thing happened to my first spectrum!

I dropped a half liter of cacao on my keyboard some time ago. It still works fine, though it's a bit sticky.
