Didn't mean to interrupt again but forgot how our government and news media
tells us, in the USA, how lucky we are to not be paying as much as European
countries. They've been saying this crap for many years and we just seem to
take it as a message to go out and pay the "relatively" low pricess to waste
our resources.

Also, I don't get why the car makers don't place instructions on huge SUV's
saying if you exceed 60 MPH your tires will blow and kill you and many
others. Those damn tires aren't designed or capable of speeds over 90 MPH
which everyone owning one of these never used off road type vehicles drives
notwithstanding enormous fuel waste. Being in the PCB business, I can't
conceive of designing or fabricating tires standing up to that abuse.

Can't wait to see what the Russian oil explorations reveal and how much that
costs. Whatever happened to our oil efforts to become independent of foreign
oil? Am I wrong, or are the oil companies in charge of the world and do
exactly as they wish.

On a more local technical note, what about epoxies and other resin systems
required for out PCB's? Do we have any more control?
