There's a sub-plot I'll only limn re Tweek:
The (undiluted) substance was *snared by a Canadian, who charged something in $n-000/liter (litre?) and was as irascible as.. well: You.
But without the panache. Or the Sense (re people, especially.)

* He didn't own the Tweek ™ and IIRC some others' use of his Stuff ran into problems over That [fact.]
Have lost track of Dave F. and subsequent history of the substance..
I was amazed (as was skeptical-Dave) until I did the Test. hP 5-digit 4-wire Ohmmeters don't Lie.
Still unclear how the micro-chemical/alloy surface managed to cajole electrons into lock-step.. y'know?
(Sumiko/Berkeley CA still exists--once Dave's company, but dunno if they still carry Tweek, etc.)

Sure I have that issue of Byte somewhere--but it's ancient history now--kinda like 'democracy' in Murica.
