• Your understanding and explanations of glazing process and chemistry are always fascinating. Like the help you give for us amateurs, but also I love the posts explaining how commercial facilities deal with cost and efficiency issues like getting production products rapidly glazed and fired without defects.

• In the 4 decades or so of my academic career (I taught ceramics as a major of the Fine Art degree at the University of Kwa-Zulu-Natal, South Africa), glaze chemistry was one of my favourite subjects, though it was too 'scientific' for most students! Your Insight-Live programme is really super! Thanks once again for all you are doing to keep the discipline alive and kicking.

• THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your continuing contributions to the ceramic world! [Yes, all caps is shouting, intentionally so!] I've been following Digital Fire for about 25 years now. Many of those years passed with my studio packed in crates in storage. I now have leads on space to reopen. You've kept my passion alive through your postings.

• Hey Tony, thanks so much for developing such a useful software. I have come to digital fire for countless questions I have had with clay and glazes.

• You've done it again. While looking up info on dolomite I got to your info about using a catch glaze. It could save a lot of kiln shelves if I can convince students it's worthwhile. Also, you just have the best info available on all things ceramic. Thanks for sharing it so freely
