The answer I was looking for was Guatemalan (bananas & illegal immigrants)
But Dentstudent is near enough, although it is backscatter X-ray not infra red.

Illegal immigrants show up clearly on an x-ray of a banana truck along the Mexican/Guatemalan border.

That's a good one, I don't think I would have thought of it in a million years.

[Make it Lady]

Bananas, thank goodness, I thought it was something else.

[DrN]

ooh, how many tarantulas do you think are in with the bananas?

Yes, it is under a microscope.

artificial diamond?

[Chemistry4me]

No, it is natural. Something we have inside us.

[dentstudent]

So its a crystal of some chemical that we have in us?

[Chemistry4me]

Correct. I am not looking for anything specific, just in general.

[dentstudent]

In what sort of quantity does it feature in the body? Say, as a %age...

[Chemistry4me]

A lot.

[dentstudent]

So the diamond thing was probably close - some form of carbon?

[Chemistry4me]

Yes, it is organic.

Is someone taking the piss ?

Nope. No one is taking any piss.

Remembering that I do not want anything specific, just in general. A lot of it in the body, A LOT.
