Default Green liquid from AC electrical plug

On 8/30/2008 12:32 PM WDS spake thus:

The AC plug on an older TV is beginning to leak a green liquid from both
prongs. Does anyone know what this could be? Is there any cause for alarm
that this may be the beginning stage of it shorting?


That's the electricity (commonly known as "juice") you got leaking
there, good buddy. You need to get a couple of Johnson gaskets to seal it.

"In 1964 Barry Goldwater declared: 'Elect me president, and I
will bomb the cities of Vietnam, defoliate the jungles, herd the
population into concentration camps and turn the country into a
wasteland.' But Lyndon Johnson said: 'No! No! No! Don't you dare do
that. Let ME do it.'"

- Characterization (paraphrased) of the 1964 Goldwater/Johnson
presidential race by Professor Irwin Corey, "The World's Foremost
Authority".
