swear to god, i'm losing my mind............but should alarm clocks, surge protectors, and cordless phones not NATURALLY be a little warm to the touch? perfecly normal, right? help me settle a bet with a friend. he claims NO, i claim YES. anything powered by electricity gets warm in those cases..........like hard drives do, tv's etc. ask cats, they love warm tv's. electric alarm clocks even have tiny vents on em.............! HOT stuff or HOT cords, i agree, is bad juju............
