Hi all, 
   Thanks for the replies on this.   I thought it might be possible to run 
NST's without oil, but was curious to see if any brave souls actually tried 
it.  I guess there are a few.  I like the thought of using vaseline rather 
than oil.  It might get thin if warmed up sufficiently, but it  certainly 
would be great if something happened to the container and caused a leak.
