Subject: [DCHAS-L] Pipetting rule

Colleagues, 

During our annual review of safety rules and printed mataerials, one of my 
young colleagues asked me if it is still necessary to include the rule "Nev
er pipet by mouth." She has never seen it done, and couldn't imagine anyone
 who would EVER think of doing it. I guess I could ask the same about the "
No eating or drinking" rule.

Any thoughts?
