What is Parafilm you ask. It is simply parafine wax supplied in thin sheets that is routinely used in biology, biochem, and related field as a quick and easy way to seal flasks that you don't want exposed to the nasty little things that float in the air. I don't think it meets the Jed Rothwell protocol for keeping CF experiments squeeky clean with respect to organics. As to other recent CF news that I would assign to the dust bin is the message from Prof. Farrell that Mills is producing 50 Watts of heat with 2.5 Watts input power - too big an effect to require careful measurements. But, of course, we can't be told anything about how this is done! Perhaps Mills would consider releasing a video. Dick Blue NSCL @ MSU
