Hmm
That confirms my long held suspicions about retsina: The ancient Greeks
were leaders in halide free, low residue, reduced VOC flux.

Not quite the whole story - but how about this for a piece of useless
information:
Colophon is one of the oldest greek, Ionian League" cities that now lies in
Turkey. Translation of Colophon is "Summit".
Around the area there are lots of pine trees - or there were! - and for
those who might recall the solderability test flux SMNA from Multicore,
that, I believe, is taken from Smyrna (SMNA - get it?) and is a water white
pure rosin. As trees mature in different ways, due to climate, so the
quality of the rosin varies - just like wine, but less drinkable.
SMyrNA is ancient Greek for Myrrh..a resin that smells lovely.
As the old saying goes, you can't know where you are going unless you know
where you have been.
Have a nice day and sorry I didn't get to see everyone in Chicago last week.
