Is that a boastful statement or are you offering radiographic services to other forum members?

My employer owns radiograpic equipment to x-ray parts for the F-22 fighter, but I don't think they would appreciate me lugging an encrusted treasure chest in there.

Stan its a boastfull statement and i have offered to xray encrusted artifacts before to tnet members here.They can bring them to me in person or ship them.I dont think its a good idea to ship something that may have a practice or real B O M B in it.I also have friends that work for the same employer as you.That employer wont do work like that.I wish they did cause i have 150lbs of a material here that i would like to have a gas spectrometer test run on to see what it really is.I was told by a NASA employee what it is.I want to know for sure what it is so i can sell it.Its worth 150k if it turns out to be what the NASA guy said.
