Steve,
More technical people have to ask questions when there isn't data to support a direction. I for one don't want to be one of those people that as you said (Let's all of us jump off the cliff, and say in the end; "We did what
we were supposed to...". The majority of career was spent under the Ma-Bell umbrella and I enjoyed being associated with Bell Laboratories where decisions used to be made for sound technical reasons and always supported by data. It is disheartening to see supply chain, bottom line economics, and bureaucracy making the decision without having supporting data. I wouldn't have take Bev's comment personal and if I were Bev I wouldn't apologize for making them. Those kinds of comments are made by all of us who's working world has been turned upside down trying to deal with Pb-Free issues.
Regards,
George

Bev,
I never have considered people on this distinguished list "my personal
entertainment".
I'm sorry that you think that, and apologize sincerely if I have come
across that way.
As I said, it was the first time I have ever read that article, and I
thought that it's very
detailed and lucid about this whole lead-free thing.
Call me naive (which I probably am), I just don't understand why our
industry is being
turned upside down like this...maybe I don't know how things work.
I'm sorry I've wasted your time. Please forgive me.
Kind regards,

I will be REAL blunt. Come on. Steve. You have been around long enough
to know how things work. We are not here for your personal
entertainment, we have jobs to do.

I was kind of suprised that there was only one private response
to my post about this...I guess we all are sheep.
Let's all of us jump off the cliff, and say in the end; "We did what
we were supposed to..."
Then live with it all...

Mornin' Everyone!
Yesterday I had one of our test technicians come to me and
ask if I knew of any good reference articles about the pro's and
cons of Lead-free solders.
He's doing a assignment in his college class about manufacturing
processes. I first went on my rant about how mis-guided this whole
thing is, and then told him that I was sure I could find him some good
references.
I did a search and found one that I had never seen before, and after
reading it, I think it's the best one I've read. Go to:
http://www.cepelec.com/iso_album/leadfreehmiller.pdf
It's 53-pages, and very, very good!
