Great videos! Given the fact that some school systems block You Tube, have you thought about cross posting some of your videos on Teacher Tube? It would be appreciated!

Did you see the Bert Haanstra movie 'Glas'. It won an oscar in 1958. It's a great documentary.

TidePools -

Pyrex is made by a company called World Kitchen. You should contact their customer service department and let them know what happened.

Sentq-

We are working on a full-length video about Mark Matthews, who makes marbles. It should be available next year. We have a great series of videos about different artists, and we'll put excerpts of those up here on YouTube soon.

I once had a pyrex caserole dish explode when I took it out of the oven. I was baking diced potatoes in hot butter at a 450 degrees. When I set the hot glass caserole dish onto the metal burner covers of the gas stovetop, the dish completely exploded. Glass and hot food when flying in every direction, fortunately nobody was injured! What happened?
