    Which looks closer to the actual CuLator: the detail or the 'color-adjusted' detail?

    How long was it in the skimmer?

    In the detail, it looks like more of the discoloration was in the bag, than in the beads. Is that correct?

    Answers:

    1. Color adjusted
    2. 9.5 weeks (it went into the skimmer on April 27)
    3. The bag was more discolored than the particles/beads. I saw light low-level iron stain in some of the particles/beads. I then asked my wife to take a look. She discerned green (nickel) color in addition to the iron, in some of the particles. After she pointed out the nickel, I saw it too. The nickel and iron colors on the particles were not real strong.
