Randy's Q&A at December BRS Meeting

[phaedraeos]

+1 on Cindy's question

Counting votes for BOD members eclipsed 1/2 of the Q&A for me

Thanks for coming, Randy!

Great meeting today Randy! You answered so many good questions I wish I had taken some notes. Definitely took some good mental ones though. You are definitely the best chemistry book we could ever hope to have access to. thanks again.

 

[S Hunter]

thank you Randy, please be sure to come back again!

 

[Liam]

The questions and answers format was great,thanks Randy

[Valentine]

Great lecture, thank you!

 

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

Thanks very much everyone!

I really enjoyed it and I'm glad you found it useful. maybe we can do it again next year or the one after that.

Since you weren't there, Cindy, I didn't go into your copper dust question, but I did a calculation and I do think it is worth worrying about it for any pipes near open tank water. Only 26 mg of copper would double the amount of copper in your 700 g tank system, assuming it starts where mine does around 10 ppb. I'm not sure how high you'd need to get before having problems, but I wouldn't want my copper to double.

Copper is also pretty dense, although the copper oxide/hydroxide dust is probably fluffed up. But 26 mg of copper as copper hydroxide is not much, about 1/100th of an mL (not accounting for fluffiness).

>maybe we can do it again next year or the one after that.<

If you're game Randy, I think we will plan on it.

 

[~Flighty~]

Thank you so much, Randy. I will be more careful in my cleanup and pipe insulating. That is, if I ever get power back on

 

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

Sorry to hear about your power situation. I hope everything pulls through.
