    Sounds like fun, and I'm always looking for ways to displace co workers etc.

    I've often wondered, let's say I have a raccoon taking up residence at my dwelling. Technically and legally I could have someone "relocate it" for me........

    Surely we should be able to do the same with humans?

    It's been done... I think they called it 'ethnic cleansing'.

    Melanie,

    I was thinking of something a little more friendly, makes me sad thinking about it thanks...

    What type of pre baking of the IC's do you typically do, if any?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    I worked for an Electronics R&D house some years back. They had a tank with a bath of tetrachloroethylene liquid. The top of the tank had a band of refrigeration coils, and the bottom was slightly heated. It created a fog that would hang in the tank just below the lip. We would hold a basket of pcbs suspended in the mist and they would be cleaned in just a few minutes. Extremely cool technique. Alas, Tetrachlor would make labratory rats explode on contact, so it's hard to find nowadays. Stupid rats!
