For those of us whove had the pleasure of the dreaded "Calon throat scrape" 
at Lillies when they thrust that 25 inch section of (probably used) aquarium 
hose down your esophagus into the mulch of mucas membrane, the news that 
there is a move toward "squirted" containers is a welcome idea.  Vivat!
