Yeah, su "they"--you know, the little elves that watch over us

don't.

I think this is just an irresponsible attitude on your part and on
others here. I *totally* agree with your other complaints about
lead-free solder: it's clearly a pain in the ass. But to listen to you
and others here go on about it, you'd think these rules were simply
capricious actions of some pinheaded Eurocrats who don't know what the
hell they're talking about. I think you're wrong about that.

And I don't want to live in an environment full of lead, thank you very
much.

But does the lead in the glass of crt's leach out, I don't think so.

In my 'hood, most of the TVs and monitors that get put out on the street
end up broken. CRT smashed to pieces. The city eventually comes along and
picks them up and takes them to the dump. It's a lot easier for lead to
leach out of broken pieces of glass.



No, actually it isn't. You are a victim of the hysterical nonsense that is
put about by the anti-lead-in-everything brigade ...
