EXCERPT
Readers of this journal may recall the concept of a “Microscopist’s Heaven,” which was first described by Walter McCrone in his 1999 Inter/Micro conference recap article (“Inter/Micro-99,” The Microscope, 47:2, pp. 101–122, 1999). In the introduction, McCrone goes so far as to list, in alphabetical order by last name, 45 candidates who could be assured to earn the honor. He omits at least 20 others because they were close but hadn’t yet met this criterion (yours truly included … or I should say, excluded).
