The  main reason I was and still am ticked is  because I suggested to Bob, Allan, Fraser and  Graham on several  occasions that  more  caustic  work should be  done on the   mud  lake sample...... many  occasions.

Before it  was  dug  up,  when it  was  exposed,  when it  was  bagged... and  every  time they  told me it was redundent...... Turns  out  I was  right  and they were  wrong to assume that everything  would  go off without a hitch ... and  likely  explains  why  they  didn't give me the courtousy of a  phone  call.

If they had  done that   there  would  be  no  doubt  that  either  the  process was  flawed or the  results  are  consistant.....
