Time to see something new then!  I even have a seperate box with low value
polystyrene, all salvaged German Styroflex.  I just picked out 3, 8, 12, 20, 22,
27, 33 and 36pF from that: http://www.dompselaar.org/styroflex.jpg
The 3pF and 8pF ones are F (1%) tolerance even.  So they were made at some
point.

Although I don't seem to have 10pF either.
