never order more than a gram of cobalt

unless it's part of a chemistry set

Why is that

its one of those red flag elements

Because it tends to be radioactive

?

so unless ur a custom glass maker ...i would't recommend ordering too much cobalt

Why

no, not really...but it has weird properties when mixed with radioactive isotopes

Ah

Well keep it away from the bananas

it basically makes the isotopes unstable

Well isotopes are already pretty unstable

That's why they break down over time

Great for lasers

^

That I know nothing about

now mix in boron, and cobalt and beryllium ...and add an isotope...then u can make a neutron version of a laser

i was bored in the 70's

Ah lovely

Seems dope

might explain why they offered me nuclear electrician position in the navy

Hey me too!

Good fun

I wanted to be a grunny in the marines more though

i knew the feds do a background check on ur butt before u even finish bootcamp

Well of course they would

but could they at least left all my stuff alone at home...came back home to find missing parts to my stereo

Well yah, that's how you get processed for a clearance.

my speakers had no cases when i got home

it was just the parts

Must of been one hell of an extensive background investigation XD

i had to build new cases for the parts

had to rebuild the stereo too

only thing left intact was the tape deck and record player

my lab vanished tho

Interesting

O.O

left a few beakers tho

but most of the materials went missing

good thing they didn't find the radium
