Funny Story Burning a Casio

Just remembered this from years ago, anyone remember the first Casio solar powered watches. A friend of mine had one and it started to fade from lack of light so he decieded to put in under a lamp, problem was he only put it about an inch away from the bulb. Anyway long story short a few hours later he could smell burning, upon looking at the watch the plastic face had melted and the watch was useless, anyone else done this or heard of someone being stupid enough to do it.
