Boston Bound

On October 2, I will be off to Boston, MA for one week of product training. As a reseller for Thermo-Electron Corporation myself and five others from various branches have been chosen to become "Titration Experts" for our company.

Man, I almost fell asleep just typing that.

The classes are sure to be a yawner as I am very familiar with chemical titration from working at both Hycroft Resources and Barrick Goldstrike.
Of course back then we used to titrate chemicals
using the old colorimetric method. This method
was much more fun than sucking solution through a tube and having the results print out on your computer. At least you felt like you were doing basic chemistry then and had to actually calculate the results yourself. Okay, so now days, with Automatic Titrators, you can analyze about 50 times as many samples in the time it took you to run one the old way, but it's still not as much fun.

Anyway, the classes are sure to be long and boring. I am looking forward to going however;
I've always wanted to see this part of the country
and I couldn't ask for a better time to go with the
fall foliage this time of year.
