Found on Facebook: Very Disturbing Images
A very serious issue has been raised on Facebook concerning the use of ABU lab glassware. What is most disturbing is that the image on the far left is the MOST RECENT image. We need to know ... are these the same E-flask?
First of all, I would like to make it clear to all animal activists that no hamsters or goldfish were harmed in the taking of these photographs! Gus-Gus walked willingly into the flask in his usual search for food, and well… the fish had to be coaxed into the e-flask, but he was not harmed! and is still living quite well in his fish tank.
Second, to answer the question of whether the E-flasks in the picture are all the same one, I cannot be certain, as 4 E-flasks have been sighted on the premises. Furthermore, according to procedure, all E-flasks are always properly sterilized before each use, as sanitation is very important to us white house ladies.
I hope this puts all those who were concerned at ease.

You know, they make those E-flasks in 1 L size if you would like to do a puppy ... or a boyfriend.
