:)   No, I stand by what I said.  I bet if you talked to those "IBM research
paper" authors that they meant the normal allotropic form of tin when they
used the word "white".  I would expect that a company as professional as IBM
had gone into some detail in their work and were not just simply describing
a color.

And I would like to stress that I made no swipes at particular forms of the
immersion tin and just noted the general situation as I know it.

I'm a big boy, I can take it... I wear steel toed, ESD boots.

regards,

Bev Christian.
