When using crimped connectors, on stranded copper wire, I usually, tin the copper first. This holds the wire together better and makes for a more solid crimp.
Added: When I have to do a lot of crimps, I light up the solder pot and use the MAPP torch to heat the copper and dip it in the solder pot. I can tin 20 to 30 wires in a few minutes that way.

I would like to treat my gas pedal as a binary operator. It would be nice to get the cooperation of everyone in front of me.
