[Tfug] OT: Fixing a sticky keyboard

[Mark]

Try just taking off the offending keys (since it's just a few) and clean  
with a cotton swab and alcohol.  Most
computer tool kits come with a tweezer-like tool (I think it's an IC  
extractor) that works pretty well at pulling
keys.  This normally works for me.

If that fails, you can always try taking out the electronics and running  
the rest through the dishwasher...no soap and no heat.

And now that the monsoon is about over, an hour or so outside will dry it  
out.

Just a suggestion, but with the coke ingestion, the thing may be shot  
anyway.  You probably can't
hurt it any worse.
