[sdiy] Today's Pet Peeve

[David G Dixon]

My "current" pet peeve is that almost every single component made to go
between parallel panels and PCBs is a different height, requiring shimming
washers or some other crap.  Why couldn't they all have gotten together and
said "let's make 'em all 8 mm thick" or whatever?  I hate the electronic
components industry with a seething passion.  I can't think of any other
industry that abuses its customers so consistently and so casually.

Agreed.  

Question: is the plural of datum "datem" or "datums"?
