[sdiy] Humans are not Becoming Smaller (was: SMD comming your way)

[Senso]

>Who in their right mind wants all that needless complexity?
>Anti-static tweezers, anti-static soldering irons, extra large areas
>of non-ESD floorspace, magnifying glasses for all assembly work, etc.,
>humbug!  With the types of circuits and equipment that we're building,
>circuit boards, chasis, etc. don't have to be tiny.  It's bad enough
>that some people are miniaturizing switches, jacks, plugs and other
>controls as if people are shrinking as well, but the fact is, people
>are not shrinking in size.
