[Histonet] Paraffin - Why change

As usual,  Rene Buesa has a good sense of what might be worth changing - Do not change anything to please a salesman. 
 
"Change is inevitable. In a progressive country change is constant." (Benjamin Disraeli, 1804-1887, cited from the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations).  Dizzie was Britain's first Conservative (as distinct from Tory or Whig) prime minister. He also had quite long hair (his own), was a Christian Jew, wrote popular light romance novels, and wore clothes that were funny even in his own time; a colourful character. 
 
As a well educated conservative, Dizzie tried to change things only for good reasons. Had he worked in a path lab, he probably would have adopted paraffin embedding and formaldehyde (had he lived long enough).
 
Enough fun for now,   John Kiernan
