Also, be very careful about molten solder flicked up into the eyes if 
trying to pull wires free that are twisted around solder lugs.  I always 
wear eye protection when de-soldering this type of thing.  It's better 
to cut the wire near the lug, then heat it up and un-twist it with a 
pair of pliers, rather than just heat and pull at the length of wire!  
Safety first.
