They Still Use X-Ray Film? Digital Imaging Hasn't Replaced That Yet?

You know that people steal metal for cash. But did you know that they're stealing X-rays for the silver content? Yup. Seems like a lot to go through for a relatively small amount of money -- you can't just go to a metal recycler, you have to go to a place that handles X-rays and convince them you're a legit representative of a hospital. Easier to just rip out the radials from an AM radio station ground system. (Lowell Sun; Thanks to Jeff Katz at WXKS (Talk 1200)/Boston for the link)
