Dear John & other experts, For an expert like John if things are appearing as "complete mess", what will be the fate of others. I am not able to sleep peacefully while thinking "1st July 2006". What kind of penalties can be expected, any idea? I have been told that while EMC directive was introduced at the beginning lot of vigilance activities went on but subsequently it got reduced, is this correct?

It's a complete mess. Just do what you are asked to do and soldier on...... (with a lead-free soldier, of course) -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
