Back in the Olde Days, when we gathered wax for embedding from the beehives in the back of the hospital and used the eggs from the hospital's chicken coops to make albumin as a slide adhesive (I'm being facetious here, I hope you know...), we used ScotTowels, torn in half, for cleaning water bath surfaces while cutting. I've sent this idea to Paula Pierce but it bears repeating here as I'm sure one could find very inexpensive paper towels in the "pick-a-size" package. I've always thought Kimwipes were too wimpy for cleaning the water surface but I apparently was spoiled by ScotTowels! And, yes, I am enjoying retirement but I rather miss the routine. I'll get over it!
