>>Sure I can explain it. The smoke is electrically charged with all 1's. When it is inside the chips the chips use it whenever they need a 1. But if the smoke gets out, then the chips have no more 1's but only 0's so they stop working correctly.

No books that I know of, but there are some songs, "Smoke gets in your eyes" and "On top of old smoky".
