	tin
		Industrially useful compounds of tin include stannous chloride, important as a reducing agent, as a mordant in dyeing, and for weighting silk; stannic chloride, for the last two purposes and to stabilize perfume and color in soap; stannic oxide, for the preparation of white porcelain enamelware; and sodium stannite, a reducing agent.
		Tin very rarely occurs uncombined in nature; the dioxide, which occurs as cassiterite, or tinstone, is the only ore of commercial importance.
		Tin was known and used by humans at least as early as the Bronze Age.

		And the same question fairly screamed at me one day recently when I received three separate story pitches from yet three more anti-spam start-ups, none of which had previously registered on my anti-spam radar screen.
		(That monitor looks like one of those air-traffic controller panels you see in the movie "Pushing Tin," just before the guy juggling all the planes goes bonkers.)
		The question is, how can any anti-spam vendor hope to get enough attention from the press and potential customers to survive the bloody shakeout that's coming soon to this market?
