PCR contamination

[Steven_H Harwood]

Can we please try to stay civil to each other?  
By the way, Tom Leher has uttered other snide bits as well:  "life is 
like a sewer, what you get out of it depends on what you put into it"
-or-
"When in doubt plagiarize
let no one's work evade your eyes
That's why the good Lord made your eyes,
So when in doubt plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize
only call it please, research"
