[RASMB] Centrepieces - thanks and thanks again

[David Hayes]

Hi Andrew, Ariel, John et al,

Thanks again for posting this conversation about centerpieces on RASMB.  I 
recently cleaned some cells in which the centerpieces were very difficult 
to remove.  The cooling off procedure worked very well -- they just slid 
right out.  I was just about ready to look for the plastic coated 
hammer.  I will try to store these particular centerpieces dry to see if 
that alleviates the tight fit.
