John Blacet mentioned this on list a while back and on his website and I
figure there are probably still people here who havent listened.

Jameco part 99362CP, IC pin straightener.  Spend the $6.  I picked it up
about a week ago and after tonight I have no idea how I've ever survived
without one.

This tool is right up there with, well, Jameco p/n 106884... 1/4 and 1/2
watt lead forming tool.  This is another tool that you think you dont need
but once you spend the couple bucks you'll wonder how you lived without it.

Time to get some sleep!  When you dont get fatigued from forming parts or
straightening IC pins, you just lose track of time... :-)  Almost late
enough where I have to decide if its better to sleep or just go into work
early...
