Want to visit PTL?
We welcome visitors to our Laboratory, but ask that you
make arrangements before you come out. Because our work is proprietary
to our clients, we must be sure your visit won't compromise the confidentiality
of our work. In other words, we may have to hide some things from you!
Do not take this the wrong way, as we want to show you
our Lab. We are quite proud of it, you know. We do ask that you let
us know when you'll arrive so we can give you a properly escorted tour.
We also ask that you sign out visitor's book on arrival,
that you not take pictures without permission from your PTL escort (confidentiality,
remember) and that you practice common safety habits while in the Lab.
These safety habits include not touching any item that's being tested
(we work with voltages up to several thousand volts; mechanical forces
we apply can hurt you if you get in the way; and some of our things
get awfully hot -- hot enough to burn). Don't look directly at any of
our UV or high intensity lamps that are turned on.
Raw test data, documents, samples and equipment are proprietary
and must not be copied or otherwise removed from the Lab without the
consent of the PTL Director.
So, if you can live within the above rules, please come
and visit!
