[sdiy] Ah, schematics....

Everything that we do to make electronics easier for humans, actually makes
it harder for ELECTRONS. Neat looking circuit boards with 90 degree angles
and neatly placed components are great for humans, but electrons don't like
it. Electrons want to run in straight lines or smooth curves across the
shortest possible wire length. Very hard for humans to make that look tidy.

Bob Pease's books on analog trouble shooting have photos of the kind of
circuits electrons like. A complete 3D mess to us, but with happy high speed
little electrons...

Fortunately, audio is DC for all practical purposes. Except the 10^15
dynamic range of human hearing makes things a bit more tricky.
