[Histonet] Using randomly generated anonymizing numbers for internal tracting of specimens

[Duraine, Lita]

I agree with Rene, and everyone else that using random generated tracking numbers are a really, really, big mistake.  We do EM here and it would be a nightmare if we used random numbers.  There are ways to use tracking numbers where the ID of an individual is not compromised.  Perhaps NIH should have considered the outcome first.  Oh well, I guess they should get ready to apologize in a few months.
