I thought that Steve Ciarcia wrote a *very* interesting editorial 
regarding the utter folly of banning leaded solder in the June 2008 
issue of Circuit Cellar.  I've been suspicious of and actually extremely 
annoyed at the lead free solder idea from the start, and Steve makes a 
pretty good case that it is not only a very poor electronics assembly 
medium, it is terrible ecology as well!
