Solder issue - now closed?

Solder issue - now closed?

2006-05-19 by Mark

Hi, I raised this a little while ago and was trying to reply when 
Grant put out his reply. I thought his reply was very clear, it's up 
to us to comply with the local rules such as this EU ruling, he can't 
check that for every country he exports to. US export remains 
unchanged. I doubt if UK customs will be opening up every small box 
and then sending it off to labs for testing..they are too busy trying 
to stop other things coming in. personally I hadn't heard of this 
thing, as most customers would be unaware, I'm hazy of the dates etc 
etc etc etc....

Closed!
WHAT???? 
and spoil the fun?     HELL NO!
We shall march on Brussels at dawn and pull their cognac-swilling
heads out of their asses with our bare hands if necessary! 
We shall pelt them with their own notorious sprouts until the shame of
their rash action subsumes them!
C'mon fellas!!! who's with me!?
(trudges into Atlantic alone... and thinks: hmmmmm maybe i should try
a *boat*)

I see Doc's been at the rum again. Doc, do I have to
administer the cattle prod or are you going to behave
yourself and keep posts on-topic?

Cattle prod in hand,

Mike (moderator)

Well, when a vendor sends wine to a customer over state lines in the
US, typically the contents is marked "vinegar"....

US PS Form 2976, which is used with Global Priority Mail is only 2 inches square.

There is no room to write anything anyway.

The postal inspector told me to just write down the model number and check "commercial 
sample". 

Their resources are devoted to 16 ton modular containers of Taiwanese cell phones and /
or MP3 players.

ughhhhhhhhhhh
(vigorously massages temples)
there was RUM in that????????
it tasted JUST like cream soda!
(examines tongue in mirror)
OY!...never trust a punch-bowl 
OOOOOO K!..... who did i assail this time???
let's see.... (flips back a few posts)
!!!
AW cm'on!!, officer Mike! they're just politicians!!! it's not like
they have feelings or ...uh brains or anything ...and and... i left
the vatican out of it ENTIRELY this time!!!!
(erp)
(ugh! maybe there was cognac in there too.... i HATE cognac)

anyway... while i try to relocate BOTH of my shoes, i'd like to do a
quick commercial for the ZomZoms:
if you like your analog synths STRAIGHT up and UP front in the mix..
(rather than smeared behind the Guccione vaselined-lens of whatever
effects chip Korg put in the #$%^ Triton)... then you'll LUV the
ZomZoms. Seth Nemec of Bananalogue fame torments a Moog Source and an
SH-2. The bass duties are handled mostly by an SH-101. This band is an
 overload of curtis-chip saturated fun! Seth is about 6-foot 12" and
wears size-bajillion yellow converse hi-tops below red pants and he is
 just the nicest fellow one could hope to meet. He had a spare hour
and  I was privileged to give him a tour of Mabuse Manor. We swapped
Serge stories and he got to examine some of my Wiard prototypes. 
So... for those of us lucky enough to live in tornado alley (which ,
thanks to global warming, now extends from Matamoros to Thunder Bay)
the ZomZoms are comintg to a pub , basement, or rumpus room near you.
GO SEE THE SYNTHS before everybody resorts to a laptop!!!!!

(ok Mike... there was Wiard content!seeeee?)

now where's that other shoe?
(hic! urp)

 PS Hey Grant!
answer your phone!!! the ZomZoms want to know what's up with MEME
