That's an interesting observation.  It leads me to think that those who get
upset if one questions whether Pu can be in DU might know something we don't.
Otherwise, why, unless we've beat this horse to death and they are exasperated,
as we should be too, would they get upset?  Thanks for the info.  I knew of the
standard, but, just because there is a standard, doesn't mean all DU met the
standard.  If someone could tell us from their experience that all DU was tested
to demonstrate the amount of PU in it met the standard, I would feel better.

I, too, have no particular ax to grind in this matter.  I'm only interested in
knowing facts.
