[Histonet] Hair Bulbs

[Dana Marshall]

hi all

I am on several listservers and this is definitely the most interesting and the most lively.  Between the anchovy gonads and the hairbulbs (and all that has come with that), I'll just say I never delete a subject thread anymore because you just don't know where it will go:-)
Happy staining!
