Sure makes me wonder why you don't have any in-stock glass for sale, then. Or why you aren't an authorized dealer for torches or safety glasses. You are a puss-filled scab on the ass of society. Wherever I'm positioned, I'll be there doing profitable business years after you've closed shop. Your delusions are centered at the intersection of ignorance and arrogance, D-anus. |

Leave the adults to have meaningful conversations.m It's a mental disease, Michele. Megalomania (from the Greek word ???????????) is a psychopathological condition characterized by delusional fantasies of wealth, power, genius, or omnipotence - often generally termed as delusions of grandeur. The word is a collaboration of the word "mania" meaning madness and the Greek "megalo" meaning an obsession with grandiosity and extravagance, a common symptom of megalomania. It is sometimes symptomatic of manic or paranoid disorders. |

T'was I Michael.
It scares me, in a sense, that everyone's gathering around the kiln and beading torch. I can see the major glass manufacturers developing and expanding thier lines of fusing glass at the expense of the traditional glass lines we foilers and camers use. Yes, we can use the fusible glass in our leads and foils, but generally speaking, we pay a premium for using the fusible glass, at least up here in Ontario. Just compare the price per ft. of Spectrum sp200 and SP200f. Bullseye has stopped producing thier stippled (?) glass in favour of producing more fusing glass. I just hope that doesn't set the pace for other manufacturers. Don't get me wrong. The wife has two kilns and does a lot of simple type projects. Hell, I saved close to $400 last summer on my tiffany Dragonfly lamp by fusing my own bead set. Grin, I actually enjoyed doing it and tried a few small projects of my own. But, it isn't, to me at least, as enjoyable as our more traditional way of doing glass. Grin, hell, if it ain't got any lead in it, it ain't stained glass! If it don't take a month to make, it ain't worth hangin' in the window. Just my two cents worth . . . Love the shake and bake tag. Going to throw that at the better half next time she's in the glass room with me. Can I pass the blame on to you?

I got a Bullseye catalog today in the mail and the truth in that statement is verified by the emphasis in their catalog. Shake and bake. Michael |

i agree, but the fact that most hobbyists are going to fusing (shake and
bake ;) creates more of a demand for us old world masters of traditional foil/came. The fewer of us continuing the tradition, the higher the demand (and the price!) No matter what anyone may claim, there is still, and always will be a market for traditional stained glass windows! m wrote in message ... T'was I Michael.
