What the hell kind of name for a drink is Mountain Dew?

"Charlie Gordon (see TRI-CITY BEVERAGE for more info) was told by Barney Hartman of Hartman Beverage on a train trip back from the Tennessee Bottler's Convention in Nashville about a product he made at his lake cabin and used locally. Barney and his brother Ally were known connoisseurs of the mixed drink and even kept an open bar in their Knoxville, Tennessee bottling plant. It seemed that the brothers had concocted their own private 'chaser', a special East Tennessee 'Zero Proof' soft drink for mixing with Jack Daniels, that they jokingly called "'Mountain Dew'."
Looks like "Mountain Dew" was just a joke! Sure fooled you all!

Taking apart controllers is easy. I took my ps2 controller apart and installed a magic switch. Unfortunately I had to remove one of the things that makes the controller vibrate.
But I owned.

face it, your controller is shot. you'll never get rid of dried up mountain dew...... i once spilled faygo, a really cheap cola product, on a keyboard and i tried to keep using it, but after about a week i gave up.

I spilled MD on my keyboard last summer,and I thought it would stick, but it didn't.
I have no real contribution to this thread,just felt like saying.

Maybe some rubbing alcohol and careful reassembly?

wash or submerge in a bowl of alcohol (non drinkable type) let fully dry. problem solved until you spill dr. pepper on it.
