No, though I did have a transistor with a broken leg recently. These
days I tend to determine resistor values with a meter. Only time I
couldn't do that it was because it had been overheated and was open
circuit. That all the colour bands were now different shades of brown
didn't help.

Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience
prove you wrong. Remember: when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is*
naked, the truth and a lie are not "sort-of the same thing" and there is
no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza.
