Re: [TCML] parker globe for sale
there was a video tape that came with my unit that explained all about the
mixing of gasses - of course it didn't say WHICH gasses he mixed, but it was
more than just 2 or 3 - the gallery had a whole variety of units with
different colors and behaviours

There are formulas for making a great number of colors.
The standard globe that you usually see in novelty stores is an easy mix
of inexpensive neon & argon.
The other colors require fairly exact rations of one gas to another and
often also have other chemicals that are injected in the mix. I believe
sodium bromide (sp?) was one of the add ons that could be used to obtain
the green coloring in a xenon/argon mix, but I don't recall the exact
formula.
