Suiting Up for Table Topics

Members of KT Talkers club in Milpitas, California, dress in “bunny suits,” which include a head cover, face mask, suit, gloves and boots, during a special Table Topics session inside their company’s semiconductor cleanroom. The club is sponsored by KLA-Tencor, a leading provider of semiconductor equipment and yield management software. Members wanted to showcase their company by meeting inside a “class 100 cleanroom”—an industry term for a room almost entirely devoid of airborne particles—where research, development and production take place. As one member commented, it was an exceptionally “clean” Table Topics session.
