If a 1k resistor to ground can kill a Mesa card, I'll buy the beer.  That 
would be, with the far end of the resistor tied either to 5 volts or to 
ground, a half a milliamp current flow.  I might start checking things at 
10 mills or more, but some of the buffer chips in use today can source or 
sink 24 mills.  Half a milliamp s/b a total non-issue.
