Best regards, Charles Why not use the fake colorless, oderless stuff? It works fine, is fairly cheap, and doesn't mess up anyones skin or nasal passages. -- JK Sinrod NY Sinrod Stained Glass www.sinrodstudios.com Coney Island Memories www.sinrodstudios.com/coneymemories |

What is an "officially sanctioned" stained glass supplier and who does the sanctioning? It's just driving me nuts. Is it something like "America's Best Chew" on every package of Red Man Chewing Tobacco? -- Jack http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/xmissionbobo/ |

Sanctions could "also" mean penalties, as in Figgy is on the run from the Mounties? |

Is it something like "America's Best Chew" on every package of Red Man Chewing Tobacco? Perhaps it's something related to ISO-9000? There are 70 companies who produce glass listed as meeting those requirements for ISO-9000 sanctioning/certification in Canada (according to the ISO-9000 website). http://www.whosregistered.com/iso/cb_info/MainPage.html |

Thanks. Charles Yes they are 100% correct. Us real glass cutters like to smoke unfiltered cigarettes, eat rare pork, and work barefooted, while we suck up those lead fumes as well. -- JK Sinrod NY Sinrod Stained Glass www.sinrodstudios.com Coney Island Memories www.sinrodstudios.com/coneymemories |
