[Histonet] Static Cling

[Weems, Joyce]

Do you have a faucet of something near by that you can run a ground wire to? You can use thin wire attached to the microtome and twist it around the faucet or air or gas connect. I have no idea where I heard this - may be farm logic (I grew up a farmer), but I used to do it and it worked! And I just read in a household hint column that attaching a safety pin to a seam would eliminate static cling in clothing. 

Good luck. There's nothing much more aggrevating than that problem! j

Please offer any suggestions that you have for controlling static cling.  My co-worker is cursed with the worst case of static I have ever seen.  We have a static-free chair mat, we run two humidifiers, she lotions her hands very well, uses dryer sheets in with her scrubs, dips her blocks in a dishwasing liquid/water solution before cutting (to break the surface tension) and still the sections stick to her hands.  She used a whole can of "static guard" last week, to no avail.  Please HELP, she is threatening to lock the door and cut in a thong and wet T-shirt!!!!!!!!!!
