[Histonet] Stupid, stupid static!!

[Thomas Jasper]

Hi Sarah,

One of our staff uses the static spray now and then.  It works pretty
well but the "fragrance" isn't the greatest.  We also have a couple of
humdifiers in the lab.  These seem to help as our air in central Oregon
is a bit dry on this side of the Cascades.  Don't know if dry air is an
issue for you in Austin, but we love our humidifiers here.  Actually one
is this cool blue penguin that shoots mist out of his beak...makes me
smile every day.

Later,
Tom Jasper

So where the microtome is here that I have to use we have to wear those
blue hospital booties and disposable lab coats (the white paper type
ones).  With me and several other people walking around in those booties
the amount of static electricity is to say the least frusterating!!
Does anyone know of anything I can do to get rid of the static?

Thanks
