Default Re: Availability of Leaded Solder?

I have just stocked up on quality solder - I was running out anyway. I suspect with the internet that lead based solder will likely be relatively easy to obtain for the foreseeable future, but the quality brands may possibly be harder to get hold of if legislation bites. From past experience, I think that the lead free, but high silver content solder I have is at least as good as the cheap lead based (for electronic work) solder I once bought, but nowhere near quality lead based solder.
