I have found that my awful old rubber bulb desoldering tool is in fact
somewhat useful.

The trick is to heat a pin on one side of the board and use the tool on
the other side. I realize it may not work very well on ICs, but I managed
to free a toroidal transformer by this method. I'm not saying that the
rubber bulb is the best thing since sliced bread, but it isn't useless,
either.

The trouble with this country is that there are too many politicians
who believe, with a conviction based on experience, that you can fool
all of the people all of the time.
