I believe that the PTO was interested in the "stand-off distance" too, except it didn't have to do with the detection technology based on UVF. They wanted the CDEx to be more specific about the stand-off distance of the X-RAY based technology.

Substantial stand-off distances using UVF have been around a long time. In fact, Sandia National Laboratory had great success with detecting 5-10 ppm concentrations of targeted samples at a stand-off distance of 1/2 kilometer.

And that was back in 1995 around the time Poteet and Blair allegedly worked together at OSEM and were involved in research projects at Sandia.

Advancements in optics has been expotential over the past ten years. It's exciting to think of what the capabilities are today.

Of course when it comes to X-RAYS, ya just can't change the laws of physics. (Sidebar: Artabraham once claimed that Loch Harris had discovered new laws of physics which I pointed out was OK, as long as they don't contradict existing ones)

I often wondered if UVF was being used all along in the ELF and the Boyz claimed it was XRF just to throw people off like they did with the "magic window" and "nitate" explanantions.
