Dave,

Not meaning to offend, but I threw out a little honey there to see how many
flies I could catch. Didn't mean it to be you. That brings to mind - who
said you can catch the most flies with dead squirels?

Winter, are you serious? Hell, I came out of my hole for a peek expecting to
see a frozen wasteland. Just saw the waste. They have huge "land" fills here
in Michigan and folks from Canada even dump here. When finished, these waste
piles are sometimes turnned into ski slopes. Thought I'd seen it all.

Actually, I was dangling my hook for someone in the AOI industry to come
forward and smash my comments about how immature the current equipment and
process is. I said the stuff was only good determining attributes instead of
variables. What I want to know the state of art/science concerning this
technology and how it could be used in the DFM process if capable of
providing hard data correlating findings to reliability requirements, or
some such thing.

Anyone have the latest on AOI and/or where it is headed?

Enjoy the Spring without ever having had Winter,

Earl
