.....so, let us create a hypothetical person(and , perhaps, and unfortunately so,not so hypothetical).....on the edge,,,,thinking to do someone harm......and conflicted, trying to "get himself together",,,the kind we read about too often in the newspaper.......and so we tell him,,,,,,"god is in charge, god is in control of everything..the person you are obsessed with doing violence to, you know is innocent?.....well, so was jesus----and god was in charge of all those who killed him...maybe your victim-to- be is jesus too..get with the program".........now, is this good? is this "control" issue a central part of the lesson you are bringing forth..(or, must i say "god is bringing forth thru you").....i'm just more than a bit concerned with something here that is hard to pin down.....ARE YOU CLAIMING THAT ALL you DO IS GOD'S WILL?.........also,,,,should the above hypo realize he isn't where he should be ,how does he get there.....?....reading the bible?....that tells him whatever he does is god's will? it doesn't, in a real way, seem to add up-----you know what i mean?

Are you asking me if Calvinism would push a nut over the edge?

So, I disconnected it and submerged it in a tub of hot water to soak. After a few minutes I removed the keyboard and turned it upside down on a beach towel in a dry room. Left it there for a week and it worked perfectly again.

Really???

It really does work. The warm water loosens the residue that shorts out the printed circuits on the mother board. The important thing is to make sure it fully dries out before reusing it.

Also when the keyboard is submerged, swishing the keyboard around in the water a bit helps in loosening the residue. I would not use any soap in the water since the soap film left may also cause problems.

I just tossed a board a few weeks ago..but I usually have to replace the keyboards a couple times a year . I will try it the next time..these babies are expensive..and 95% of the time it is coffee or soda that locks them up on me:>)

Keep a back up keyboard to use while the other one is drying out.

If God is not in control is anyone?

Do you remember the woman in Texas that drown all her children? Do you remember the reason?

The lady was not a Calvinist..she was an Arminian..she drown them because she felt they were not good and would go to hell if they lived past " the age of reason"

A Calvinist would not do that..We believe that is all in Gods hands
