Hi Ramon,
I wished you were right--the Europeans certainly would deserve it. But, 
unfortunately, it will affect all of us about equally. You cannot be madder than 
I--I have been at this now for at least 4 years; and my level of frustration 
cannot be topped. This is the "Emperor's New Clothes" in reality. Unfortunately, 
too many people make money off of this--particularly the universities; so the 
very people that should have the strongest voices in the scientific community 
have the highest interest in perpetuating this insanity.

      Hi Werner:   

         I am madder than anyone else when it comes to this LF change. I know 
that I got the real facts quite late and that I am only a voice. I console 
myself by saying that it will not affect us to the extent that will affect 
Europeans. My thinking is that at some point the counter movement will win by 
demonstrating that LF is not so free but expensive and affects the environment more 
harshly.

          Regards,

          Ramon

Hi Ramon,
it is that kind of thinking that gets us into trouble. Just because you are 
not exporting to the EU, or because your part of the industry is exempt, does 
NOT mean that you are not affected--YOU WILL BE AFFECTED. that is because, you 
will not be able to buy SnPb-parts.
