I want to know how the devil they can tell if the blood comes from a bull,
steer, or cow--OR if they even know the difference?
BTW: Camille, I love your middle name, where is it from? Ruth
"We can look at a masons work to see if its good how in the hell can I look
at a lab 's work and see if its good "
Py, I'll give a quick answer. I think judging a mason and a lab are really
not that different.
1) Instead of just asking for a mortar analysis decide what kind of
questions you have. Ask all of those things you mentioned (e.g.; can you
identify hot-mixed tabby and bull's blood?). If two labs answer your
questions differently than challenge them on each other's answers.
