Dan:

We can do it for you.  You need to bake them out to get all the residules
out or as the electrons bombard the glass walls they knock molecules loose
and you end up with a glowing fuzzy ball after a few months.

We bake them, bombard the walls with 60 kV argon molecules, and backfill
while still warm.  Any less than this and you will have to refill every few
months or more often.
