Yes indeed. I used to have a friend of mine whose father was a GP who 
ran his practice from home. He had a *HUGE* cannister of the stuff in 
the hallway.

One of my friends favourite pasttimes was to get a specimen jar with a 
screw top lid, half fill it with LN and roll it down the corridoor 
waiting for the boom...

Thanks for the suggestions,
