Shutup! Dammitall!

Who knows where this may lead. I have purchased the remnants of three
"going out of business" drug stores, and have found therein many interesting
things, in addition to ampules of novacain.  Pigments, dyes, drugs in their
original form (which are also often colorants).

Just a thought.
