The ``innocent bystander'' electron is annhilated, not promoted/demoted between
energy bands. It has gone, it is no more. Ist alles kaput [warning: my
translation may be shockingly bad]. Ceased to exist. Has shuffled off its mortal
coil. Is too small to nail to a perch or it would have fallen off that anyway.
Can you think of a batter description of annhilation than ``died?''
