Heck,  it is an even better plan to just turn off the power supply 
before making any such connection,  whether it is a computer, radio, or 
accessory.

But, shoot, this could happen to anyone in a hurry or in a moment's 
distraction.  My most frequent connectivity faux pas is to confuse the 
little computer mic plug with the earphone plug, and wonder why I don't 
hear anything...    ;-)


It took a huge dose of humility for a guy with his
credentials to tell us that story.

Just MY take.   Happy trails!
