I just like to give the readers an option. For transmission line terms,
they can choose between HP/Agilent's usages and definitions, or yours.
For terminology regarding contacts, they have their choice between 3M's
and Richard's. And for engineering educational standards, readers can
choose among Ronold King, Terman, and Kraus, or Reg Edwards. I'm sure
each will make the choice that he/she feels most confident with.

==============================

Yet you still insist on using manufacturers' sales blurbs and specifications
as engineering educational standards.
