So who says you can't teach an old dog (fart) new tricks? .... well, at

It changed when the pedants took over and demanded greater perceived
precision through change of emphasis. CTE is deemed to be more
scientifically correct than TCE (so my teach told me many moons ago (NPI)).
TCE = Thermal Co-efficient of Expansion as opposed to any other
co-efficient of expansion, while
CTE = Co-efficient of Thermal Expansion as opposed to a co-efficient of
expansion caused by anything else.
The idea is to place the emphasis on the 'Co-efficient' bit, not on the
'Thermal' bit ... or something.
I'm just bored and just wanted to say something, OK?

Steve,
You really are an old timer. TCE instead of CTE? I still use the former.
When did it all change?
Earl
