If anyone ever came up with the brilliant idea of producing an FAQ, this would certainly be in the top 10 :-)

Does anyone use Isopropyl Alcohol instead of Ethyl Alcohol on their
processor?  Does anyone feel it does a better job at dehydrating the
tissue?  At the request of the pathologists, I am looking for any method
that will speed up the processing time for breast tissue.  Any information
and/or suggestion is welcome.

Thank you.
