 Nicholas,
         I have not been around long enough in the industry (only 8 years) to
have any "old" thinking on the topic, so let's look at the whole
picture...(snip)
A little more on that later...                             (snip)
With that being said, any chemist would tell you that the cooler room idea is
a good one. But now let's look at it in not such a theoretical sense...
                                                                                          (snip)
or even blowing the majority of the solder right out of the joint. We are
talking about more than a thousand fold increase in volume here as the water
turns to steam...
                                                                                          (snip)
Of course we are not a military provider that has signed a contract to provide
10 radios today and another 10 just like it in 10 years either...
                                                                                          (snip)
There is another reaction I have not mentioned yet...
                                                                                          (snip)
And getting REALLY esoteric, (hope you can tell I'm really enjoying doing this
:)  ) if you are dealing with boards with a 100% tin finish...(snip)
which will vary whether you are near Hobart on Tasmania (where snow is
possible) or near one of the great Australian deserts (no map handy)...
                                                                                         (snip)
Also coolant loss would put even more CFC's, HCFC's or HFC's into the
atmosphere and
contribute to what may or may not be happening - global warming...
                                                                                         (snip)

         regards,

Lordy Woman! You been at Starbucks sippin' on double expresso's all day long
today? You're starting to sound like me with the way I can go on and on
sometimes....(GRIN)

I'm just joshin' ya!

I must admit though, I've never read anything as entertaining and kept my
interest on PCB storage as I did today! GOOD response! You taught me
something!

You're normally kinda' reserved and to the point with most of the responses
that I've read of yours, are we starting to see the REAL Bev now? (GRIN
again...)
