I  can't understand this post. Is it just me?

Dear Histonet,

My Pathologist would like to see a perfect sheet of cells. He wants the 
vacuoles and smashed sells eliminated.  We have tried many different 
processing programs and have changed the temperature of the water on the 
stainer.  I have sent pictures of the problems with formalin fixed skin (cut 
at 4 microns) and a bone marrow cut at 3 microns)  If anyone has any 
suggestions I would be very grateful.  The pictures are listed as separated 
cells 1 & 2 @ histonet pictures.
