It appears that Dr. Kiernan is another victim of Microsoft office 2007.  Could a users' coalition large enough to boycott it effectively be formed?

   There  is no such thing as 4% paraformaldehyde. Nobody can sell or
   us=uch  a  non-substance!
See Histonet archives passim ad nauseam.=6nbsp; (That's how the ancient Romans said, in 3 words,=2on and on, until you want to vomit". Latin is concise=
 
4% formaldehyde is a real solution, and =e of the ways of making the solution is to heat 40 grammes of =raformaldehyde in a litre of water, with an alkaline catalyst to sp?d up the hydrolysis. Paraformaldehyde exists only as a solid substan?, which is insoluble in water.  All this has been in all the textbooks and manuals for 40+ years.
