More Quotes from Tom Thompson:
I've always been fascinated with being able to detect a minuscule amount of a contaminant in a complex matrix, the proverbial needle in a haystack. With LC-MSMS technology we can detect substances that were previously very difficult or impossible to analyze.

I just think sometimes you have to have patience with these things, ... I go back to my lawyer days, doing all those big insurance claims in Manitoba, and sometimes you are close but you just don't know it. It's hard to predict these things. And sometimes it's not so much a money matter as it is the timing. Sometimes things happen a little slower than you'd like, and that's the way it is. It's nothing personal at all -- you just have to be patient.
