Ralph,

agreed, though metallurgical analysis was immediately  crossed off the list 
when we brought it up
no indication of failure, though  there are probably several thousand 
rivets to be looked at if one wants to  find an indication of at least one  
failure

If these people want rivets "tested" but no metallurgical study (why do I  
have the feeling they're too cheap to pay for one?), I'm pretty sure they  
have no idea what they are talking about. What are you supposed to do, a 
taste  test? Sounds like these are idiots you would be wise to avoid.
