Dear list

(Not strictly a confocal question:)

I heard a while ago that the use of mercury lamps on fluorescence microscopes would be discontinued in the United States, and possibly other countries, in the next couple of years,due to the safer replacement illumination systems now available.  

Can anyone verify this rumour?

Kind regards
Jen
