That's awesome. But its huge, what are the standard titles for electronics.
Ive been in a few surplus pieces, I know the standards were rigorous and often
wondered what they were.

Beats me for now. One of the guys from my old engineering group on the pipeline sent it to me. One of my jobs was static electricity and petroleum transfer. Dangerous stuff but pretty much fun to engineer out the hazards. All those specs were accumulated over decades, many lost lives and much destroyed equipment. Those are all petroleum institute specs and scattered in NFPA documents. When I get a free afternoon I'm gonna crawl through the site for a general sense of what's there. I just thought most of us, being technonerds would enjoy a resource like that.

jeez.... real boomers. I heard a quip somewhere that a gallon of gas has the
same amount of energy stored as a stick of dynamite. I was thinking that we might
be able to do some cross reference through a parts catalog that has mil. qualified parts.
