Talk:Copper (disambiguation)

"The Manhattan Project's codename for plutonium. Actual copper was called "honest-to-God copper" (a pun on the slang for police officer)"

It might have a background reference but...

Is it just me, or this doesn't make much sense? If one calls plutonium "copper", than it's expected that he will use a different name to when referring to the real meaning thing, copper. So isn't it just a way of saying that plutonium is a "dishonest" metal/"copper"?--EmanCunha (talk) 13:05, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
