That is really great. I agree with John Kiernan that Histonet really opened up the histology community. Back in the "old" days you were lucky if you knew a few techs outside your own lab, and met a few at the occasional state or national meeting. Most histotechs were very isolated. Since Histonet that has all changed. Now we are all just an email away from getting just about any question answered. I am continually astonished at the breadth of knowledge out there AND the breadth of the field. 

I think I heard about Histonet from NSH. In any case it was around 1997 and I was working in Saudi Arabia. Histonet was a fantastic resource and I even ended up getting a job back in the US through contacts I made on Histonet (remember that Jeannine?). 

Since then I peruse it almost daily and occasionally post. In any case it is always interesting to see what the unofficial "topic of the day" is!

Subject: [Histonet] Unsubscribing from Histonet

Dear Histonetters:

Hi, I haven't put out many messages on the list recently.  I have just been quietly administering the list (and occasionally removing people who ask to be unsubscribed as my time allows).   By the way,  Histonet is coming up on its 16th year anniversary (wow!) and  there are currently 3543 members on the list (from >30 countries as of my last tally).

As it keeps coming up,  if you wish to unsubscribe or modify your account options,  go to this link:


http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/options/histonet

You will need to request your password if you don't know or remember it.  I tried to get this link added to the bottom of all the messages but apparently that is not possible with the current software.  If you have trouble getting off the list, let me know.    If your email address has been changed at your organization, you may have trouble posting messages or unsubscribing. If so, let me know (but provide me with the old address that is on the membership list) and I'll try to help.
Thanks,
Linda M
