Remember their are stingers that (a) can modify a die roll and (b) can remove
skills from a runner. After you play the card on a runner with Demo you can
suddenly forget what wire to cut. Btw, I tried the chipjack demo team and
came to one conclusion. Arson just sucks. I actually lost more runners than
it was worth and any runner who has demolitions also has more than one skill
so it doesn't even replace moonlighting.
