Ha ha ... that might seem goofy, but it's very to the point. While simple tools
might not be effected by the mist (inclined plane, wheel), the more complex
a mechanism gets, the greater the effect the mist has. The mist is thick
and sticks to stuff. While it may not corrode things right of the bat, its
effects are clear. I guess we need to run a scientific analysis of the Mist
and its effects on ... everything :) Anyone willing to help?
