RE: Depleted Uranium SG

Original poster: "John H Alderman III" <alderhood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Depleted Uranium has the wrong valence arrangement .  My son how ever throws
some far out fast balls with it over in a real hot sandy place. Tungsten
electrodes that are thoriated work well and have a stable arc (TIG) however
Thorium is a beta emitter. We used to train RADCON rumor has it with
thoriated welding electrodes near an octopus's garden...A touch of
sharpening without HEPA vacuum could shut down liberty for an entire
Submarine Tender. I introduced Chemsharp into SUBLANT and got free leave and
legendary status amongst bubbleheads. If you want to sharpen perfectly for
arc control get some of that stuff at a welding supply house. Just heat with
a torch to red hot then spin in the mix...Seems I remember the mix was
actually made from cattle hooves...

DU is still mildly, but above background, radioactive.
My recollectionis it is a 'heavy metal toxin', so vaporizing it in
a spark gap seems 'iffy'.
