I'm keeping my electronics away from salt and rice, I don't think they would get along too well.

Well I just read it in a story in my local newspaper's DIY section, lord knows if it works.

Rice actually works ridiculously well. My DS was on the basement floor when it flooded, and refused to stay on for more than two seconds. A week in a tub of rice later, it worked like new!

Tickle me impressed. I never would have even considered doing that.
In case anyone is wondering, I ironed the backs with a piece of wax paper between the paper and the iron. It seemed to work well and once I put them back in the cases, it seemed fine. I don't think they are back to new, but for some old crappy games that no one except a collector would care about I think it's fine.
Very interesting about the rice, I've heard of that before but never knew anyone that had the occasion to use it.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.
