ok....so this discussion now begs the question....why on earth did the J of
Histo publish this paper in the first place?  i have come to trust in the
journal to publish papers that are scientifically sound and appropriate to
use in a clinical or research setting....and i don't believe this procedure
is (particularly after reading posts from dick dapson and john kiernan).  as
dick pointed out....i certainly wouldn't want to be the poor soul going
before the judge in the malpractice case!
