[Christ]

OK,I was just watching this on the history (?) channel earlier last month..

There is a type of naturally occurring magnet that does not discharge its' force when broken violently (thrown against a wall.) I might be mistaken though.

BTW, I've rebuilt computer hard drives... those magnets are a ***** to work around when youre putting the pickup head back in place... better to energize them after construction, I'd say.
