Hi Bill,
seems as you get into a mess whatever your policy is. When the steam engine was invented, not all people were happy. Same when first cotton harvesting machines came, or automatic this and that. News are oftenly seen as antinews. I can see that some take the leading initiative immediately, som struggle against, and most are just ambivalent and don't do anything. Ourselves, we have been preparing leadfree for years, and leadfree is slowly adopted and used in many products. At the same time, we try, like in a 10,000 m race, to get a glimpse of what happens with those leading the race and what's going on behind. Will the field spread, or will we all cross the line within seconds? Will some give up halfways, and some be exhausted with just one round left?
I have given the articles to our tech responsible. He got no time to read pounds of papers and endless rumination. Many thanks, Bill, best concentration of lead(free)news I've seen for a long time.

Hi All!
I was sent an image of a rather unusual capacitor from a Technetter, Larry
Russell, who is over in Taiwan. Take a look at "Capacitor" on my page at:

I hope I don't ever see one of these!
