All in all, Werner is right on the mark as usual, and that's good, but
does anyone know just what MELF really means? 

To answer that age old question, I am happy to provide the following
answer. Yes I know it isn't Friday, but why not start the LONG week on a
light note?

MELF = Most End up Lying on the Floor

Hi Paul,

You guessed it--it's the pads. Shorten them--particularly important with
the 

SAC-solders with higher surface tension--, the end fillets were put
there 

originally for wave soldering.
