Story
Adolph arrived, and everyone descended as usual. Jim picked this piece up, and was asking about the color. I said I thought it was irradiated. He took it away, but a bit later when I was poking around Adolph had it again. I made sure Jim had put it back, then talked about it a bit. Adolph wasn't sure what to ask, or whether the color was real. I said I didn't think it was and explained why, then bought it after Adolph asked what I'd pay. http://cjow.com/archive/article.php?month=4&a=04Cobalt-60%20Irradiation.htm&year=1972
