Hi All --
I came across an article by Bob Pease on dielectric absorption, also known
as soakage in capacitors. This is an important consideration to anyone
building long-period analog filters and integrators. About halfway down
the article is Figure 6, which is a schematic of a circuit that seems like
a way to negate most of this effect with large capacitors such as
electrolytics and mylar.

Note that the article was written almost 20 years ago.
