Hi Angel,
I hope that my not always agreeing entirely with you has not discouraged you, although I have the full power to delete your comments if they are not welcome I have never done so!
In fact in my last reponse I said that "I agree with much of what Angel has said". Now you yourself just said that "You're lucky to see any 2 in agreement", so I guess that just proves your point!
This is an open forum and I encourage participation and am somewhat surprised by the lack of interaction we have here considering the number of people who view the board. So far everybody has been respectful of others and nothing has ever been deleted.
Thanks for asking.
Gary Dodge
: It's recently dawned on me that this board isn't designed for user interaction. Nothing wrong with that but if it's meant to be only an "ask Gary Dodge" question and answer place I will re-evaluate it on that basis because I don't want to intrude on the intention of the moderator by interjecting my experience and ideas in response to the questions.
: It's really a waste of a good forum. Not that Gary isn't an expert with good answers....he definitely is that...but when you ask a question and get only one person's viewpoint and experience it sort of defeats the purpose of forum interaction. I dare you to watch any group of Pro-glassers answer questions. You're lucky to see any 2 in agreement. Glass technique and information is not all black and white. Variation of input is how we learn.
