See this article as a sample on the subject. Maxichon is an expert on this and hopefully he will chip in a comment.
I was thinking the same thing as I was reading the article on the subject in Wikipedia, you're probably right 180 but I thought I would share what I read anyway.
I read the article that you posted the link to 180 and I Come Away with the conclusion that you cannot argue with empirical data, i certainly have a new understanding of Dielectric grease and the proper application and improper application. I think the article you posted is so important that it should be made a sticky, thank you 180 for shedding the light of Truth on this very misunderstood subject.
