Simply leave all the doors and windows open at night (if possible), and it will likely find its way out, hopefully before biting everyone in your family and infecting them with incurable rabies that will cause them to die in unspeakable agony.

The trick is to find out where it got in, because this is the second one. (The first either came out or died in a different wall. I think it got out, as I never smelled anything bad.) > infecting them with incurable rabies that will cause them to > die in unspeakable agony. It's just a grin-a-minute around here, isn't it?

I've just - 10 minutes ago - finished reading an article in my Sunday newspaper, about a mystery disease that is sweeping through the bat population of North America, and decimating whole colonies. They think that it might not be a disease as such, but a fungal infection which leaves a white deposit on the noses of the bats. Apparently, bats are responsible for consuming millions of tons of insects which do harm, and if the bat situation becomes serious enough in terms of loss of numbers, it could have a devastating effect on the balance of the ecosystem. Back to the resistor question. Such resistors, mostly with no immediately discernable purpose, are often to be found strung around the insides of amplifiers and hifis. You sometimes find things like a metal bracket that for whatever reason, the manufacturers didn't want hard grounded, connected to hard ground via such a resistor. Could it be something like this, and the connection point on the speaker connector board, was just a physically convenient point to hook it to ? As to finding it on the schematic, it might well not be shown where you expect it to be. I have seen these resistors shown as a completely isolated entity, within dotted lines, hidden up a corner of the diagram somewhere. You might find it shown on the layout diagrams, or the internal wiring diagram or block diagram though. Arfa

Actually, I adore bats, but couldn't resist the temptation to play on people's prejudices. Bats will die fairly quickly if they don't have food, so you want to get the little critter outta there promptly. In theory, opening up everything might work, as the bat might have come in tru de window. > Best not kill it.

People have been aware of this problem for decades. Though bats do have a higher percentage of rabies than other mammals, it hardly ever transferred to humans unless they touch a sick animals. Bats are our friends. They kill tons and tons of inset pests. Love 'em.

You can always rent a Batman costume and see if it will follow you out the door. |
