Be Careful!!  Charged slides can lose the charge over time and the 
expiration date should be taken seriously.  If anyone looks into these 
slides see if you can get the expiration date and how they have been stored 
over the time the lab  had them.  I learned this the hard way with some 
older stored slides from another lab and got burned when the sections came 
off.  Well kept and stored slides at consistent temperature are safer longer.
