RE: ? about control blocks/ slides

From:"Johnston, Kathy"

We don't redip our control blocks in paraffin, and we just store our control
slides either in trays for our special stains, or slide boxes for the
extras.   We go through control slides quite quickly with our workload.   I
can't see the point when we don't reseal the patient blocks either.  

Does anyone reseal patient blocks??

Dear Histo friends:
Is there a proper way I should store my control blocks and any control
slides 
that I cut ahead of time? Also should I dip the block into the paraffin to 
reseal the blocks?
Thank you ahead of time for your answer's.
