Hello, E Graphs,

Thank you for your reply. I don't think you were trying to undermine me at all. In fact, I believe you were underscoring a point I was making earlier.

While I'm no virologist in the slightest, I do believe said gold would probably exist in a salt form, thus not
sustaining viability of the virus.

Secondly, I stated that I didn't want to focus on "used HIV" gold remainders as it were, because, as
contaminated bio-medical waste, it is already highly controlled, and mostly incinerated. I'm in neither
the bio-remdiation of bio-med waste, nor in the "incendiary" business as a gold recycler.

Rather, I come at the TRIB Uni-gold HIV testing product gold reclamation from a different angle...that of the test's modality being replaced by a cheaper substitute test for HIV results in 5 minutes instead of the longer 10min.
In emergency room medicine or EMT medical care delivery, for example, the difference between a medical care
giver's choices between the 5 and 10 minute interval might be highly significant.

If you were close by, I could take you to a particular liquidator who has a HORRENDOUS amount of
still sterile packaged medical goods by the pallets full just for pennies on the dollar. This is the kind of
place where such out of favor, overstocked modalities end up and where people like me hang out, that is
if we aren't already snowed under with work from others who scrounge gold for recycling and send to me
for recovery of the precious metals' contents.

Last but not least, as I read the TRIB website, it would appear that the Uni-gold test also emcompasses
testing for fertility and pregnancy. Are you certain I won't become pregnant if I were to recycle "used"
tests...I guess bio-medical "hazardous" waste has all kinds of dangers, eh?<g>

So, now, I have to get two types for testing gold values...the HIV and the PG ones...oh, goody...!...!...!
And then I can add THREE items to my six pages of listings of items I've proven there is recoverable
amounts of gold in or on...gold wheel covers, gold HIV test kits, and gold PG tests. WHEW!

Good thing this book o'mine is digitized, eh? I'll fire off an email to my editor about this latest discussion and the potential additions to the list...should make for some good repartee come Monday morning when I go into
the office and autograph in gold the batch of books sold via the net over the weekend. Come t'think of it tho',
I've already "given at the office" ...when it comes to that kinda pregnant test part...one boy and one girl. How lucky can I get, eh?

Speaking of weekend, have a GREAT one...and thanks for your post!
