Hijacked by SPICE

“What´s All This Spicy Stuff, Anyhow?” was the title on the multiple copies of an article from Electronic Design magazine placed anonymously on my desk [1]. Until then, I wasn´t aware of this column in Electronic Design. But since I was known as “Mr. SPICE” at Hewlett-Packard, I wasn´t surprised that my thoughtful colleagues couldn´t resist sharing the article by the Anti-SPICE, Bob Pease.
