Re: Wire Glue on thinkgeek.com

Wire Glue does help reinforce the idea that solder is not a conductor, but merely convenient glue to hold what should be a good electrical connection together for an extended time.

Yes, solder conducts electricity, but only a little bit. The idea is to have a good electrical connection, one that works just fine, and the use the solder to 'freeze' everything in place.

How many times I see kids use solder like it is liquid wire. Tsk.
