Thanks Tim.  You are sweet.  
People keep asking me when I was going to retire and I told them never, they will have to carry me out feet first.  I think loving my job has kept me going this long.  :)

When I entered the profession I was told the average life expectancy of a histotechs was 20 years from hiring.  That scared me but I was already hooked.  I have been doing this 51 years, so maybe good laboratory practices can help, in spite of bad ventilation and all those other dangers mentioned.

Just what I was thinking. We will never get enough new students now!

With proper training and equipment, we do the job safely!

And you can drown in an inch of water. Is that in the MSDS!

Great. Just what we need. 

Even so, we in the business can take these lists with a grain of K4[Fe(CN) 6] * 3H 2 O since we know that suitable precautions preclude most of the danger. For instance, I'll have to say that the histo lab here is wonderful in that it has such good ventilation (ie.,  extraction) that there is none of the usual chemical smell - no xylene, alcohol, specials chemicals that often assaults the senses in histology. Vendors that come here are amazed.
