Hi Charles,

Thanks for the information I was unaware of.

On the humor side; I'd expect for the states where you have to convince the
pharmacist of the end use of the syringes....you may very likely get a blank
look when
one explains its end use...(?..whats a seismograph or seismometer?)....or
even
get denied the purchase to be on the pharmacy "safe side" of their states
laws.
