Unfortunately, he is run down right outside your office by ( you guessed it) the Graham Service before you could talk to him further. The autpsy shows densely hyalinized fibrous with birefringent crystals and mild to moderate fibrosis which is most severe in the upper lobes of his lungs. No giant cells are seen and there is no necrosis. You guess that he retired from:


A. Pigeon breeding

B. Professional duck plucking
