How would temperature effect that?  For that matter, how does temperature 
effect the typical mechanical capacitor?  Does anybody play fancy tricks to 
cancel out the mechanical motions?  (like the mercury pendulum - as the 
pendulum rod expands the mercury expands in the other direction to keep the 
CG the same)
