Thank you all very much for your comments (some very funny :-) ) and
suggestions for handling microtome knife nicks.  I will compile the
responses for our safety committee.  Not only am I benchmarking with the
nation, I am also benchmarking with the world!!  What a great source the
Histonet is.

I also like to see responses from everyone....no matter how many daily
messages I have to weed through.

Thanks again.
