You can read it here: http://bit.ly/grsl8o<br /><br />On the subject of colour - lead doesn't just react with oxygen, and it may not be pure lead anyway, so colour won't tell us much without pinning down a few of the variables.<br /><br />It's possible that some of the codices aren't lead, but there are serious technical difficulties with doing that kind of work in other metals.<br /><br />Jamie Hall (on his wife's Google username)<br />@primitivemethodUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140145066794661329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6536854065433425156.post-52780119112855560292011-04-03T20:42:20.489-07:002011-04-03T20:42:20.489-07:00Did you catch Saturday nite's Coast to Coast A...Did you catch Saturday nite's Coast to Coast AM?

He was indeed passionate about his subject and seemed genuinely excited about the contents of the tablets. This was the second time I have met David and I had the same reaction last time.

I will be interested to follow this through and will keep an open mind.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13401557414251254272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6536854065433425156.post-21974834350029831552011-04-01T16:09:11.420-07:002011-04-01T16:09:11.420-07:00Lead Oxide can also lead to memory loss, resulting...Lead Oxide can also lead to memory loss, resulting in duplicate posts.mr.scrivenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295661257329405324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6536854065433425156.post-26798108251256117162011-04-01T12:25:50.539-07:002011-04-01T12:25:50.539-07:00Lead oxide (PbO) occurs in red, yellow, or white. ...Lead oxide (PbO) occurs in red, yellow, or white.
