But if you do Jack's method, you're left with the same problem as Terry -- a microsecond of blank space, which is just as noticeable and annoying as the click.
By scraping off only the precise moment of the click, you're in effect creating a high speed fadeout and fade-in. It's audible, but less annoying than the click itself.
There's an overview of analog and digital de-clicking at http://www.cedaraudio.com/intro/declick_intro.html - but without a description of manually scraping off the oxide.
