John,
The list is "better" than that! The EU consultants list includes:
Be (bye-bye copper spring emi enclosures) Sb (bye-bye one of the alternative fire retardants) Se (an important dopant) Rosin and petrolatum (bye-bye fluxes) Glass fibers (so much for insulation for your house)
Incredible.

With the EU looking to ban Gallium Arsenide (say goodbye to your cell phone as stated below) I started to wonder what mobile communication technologies we would be left with - I found it; here is the link:

And of course as usual the technology will be promoted haevily by those with a vested interest in the price of tin........Pass the link on to your friends on Tuesday next week................8-)
