Pete, Some people can make simple things very difficult, even when it is not necessary. I think many people will recognise these type of organisations.

The frustrating part is that the 950 committee intended to implement simple test that had successfully been used for many years, I remember the iscussion. However it was clear from the outset that the use of a generic roduct class name (mineral spirits) was not acceptable on a worldwide basis o it was converted to a chemical naming. This, however, has caused ongoing eadaches, as you have noted, in procuring and using the material in product valuation. Worse yet if you has to have a chemical composition test data rom the supplier from a calibrated machine. Complication, obfuscation and despair... How can something so imple be made so complicated. Oh well, that's what you get your ulcer money for. :>) br, Pete eter E Perkins, PE rincipal Product Safety Engineer O Box 23427 igard, ORe 97281-3427 03/452-1201 fone/fax [email protected] - --------------------------------------------------------------- his message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc iscussion list.
