I was working at my desk on just a typical day for a System Administrator, and I noticed a soft spot in my jeans, it appeared that it had gotten wet earlier in the day (no crude jokes or jocular humor now!) I touched it to see if it was wet or dry and to my surprise,my jeans tore (splitwith the grain) with just a simple touch!
I thought, what could have caused this? I had a very similar incident several months ago but never found a culprit.
Looking on the internet, many people said that in the absence of moth holes, different types of acid could have ill effects on clothing, especially denim. I thought to myself, "I haven'topened any batteries, all I have done today is change some network settings, resolved a few helpdesk tickets, and replaced a bad UPS!" There it was, could the battery have had a leak in the UPS or something?
