[NJARC] Tin Whiskers

[Al Klase]

Yes, this is the result of the same Al-Gore tree-hugging junk science 
that has the insulation falling off the space shuttle, killing 
astronauts, because they didn't want to use freon to make the foam any 
more. Tin "dendrite" growth was a major concern in electronics back in 
the '70's and we got it largely under control. Now they're surprised 
that changing the solder to almost all tin causes a problem. Duh!!!
