I absolutely agree. The nature of the problem and how to deal with it 
are more important than the cause.

I was just taken with images of stray charges running 'downhill' from 
full to empty areas on a chip (sort of like images of flowing lava) and 
of rogue light sneaking over where it wasn't supposed to be, just to
