the next specimen. We operate on the single specimen basis. ORI has skillfully removed the specimen identification from all of the samples that we are going to be doing immediately. They have prepared a group of 40. Instead of saying, "Telluride, Colorado; November 20 whatever, Maza and Rothermich, zero to two increments," we have a five-digit number which corresponds to the log number for the radiochemistry group (HH-2). When it comes time, and I will be talking about making composites, we have to be notified by DRI which two specimens we put together to make the 10 composite for the plutonium samples. il another look.
