Will: 
I would like to do that very much but unfortunately Histonet is set in a way that they do not accept atttachments and any e-mail with them will not go through.

It is quantity and profit above patient care. I am old school, and I remember something about quality and patient first. Besides  what kind of impact on morality of the techs, back problems and carpal tunnel syndrom is laying ahead for the cutter after cranking the microtome repeatedly that many blocks without a break.
