    I thought the KEY differentiating selling point of WR Cobb's precise
    white alloy is that it passes the European Union's nickel testing. 

    What really puzzles me is that, according to Cobb's website, that
    precise white alloy actually uses MORE, not less, nickel than their
    other nickel based alloys. something like 44 to 50% nickel content! 

    Does anyone know how this is suppose to help the nickel testing?
    somehow makes the nickel bond better??
