Default Gamma rays'n BOPs

Ah jest knw a beet 'bout redneck fiziks so I'm not sure how Chu iz
gonna nuke that BOP to see if'n it be closed. I betcha u cud git a
C060 source offa well logger an use it. Them hospital ones'ed not
take the pressure. How's he gonna git a pitcher of them BOP rams?
Mebbe use photo film? Ever try to seal something ganst 2300 psi,
kinda hard to do onna spur of the moment. Maybe use a CCD camera but
there aint too many of em sealed that well and ya gotta git power to
em thru a 2300 psi resistant seal.
OK, you use film. So every time you take a picture ya gotta bring it
up an develop it to see whatcha got and that takes a bit 'o time.
Biggest prob I see iz how the BOP iz shaped, aint anywherez u cud put
the gamma sorce and camera ta git a good pikcher. That Chu might be
as bright as the sun but he don no nuthin 'bout deep water nor bout
oil.
Ya know, most film aint too sensitive to that Co60 gamma stuff cuz
them tiny gamma thangs go right thru it. Ya gotta use a sintillator
thingin front o' the film, good ones 're salt crystals, ya know how
that'd do in water. Therez some uthers but it kinda makes it a
problem.
