• I'm accepting the challenge. First: find/develop a good base recipe. One for clear and one for celadon. Then add the colors. And play with "surface." Experiment. Keep impeccable notes. Change one variable at a time. Yada, yada.

• I should mention beforehand that you, as well as Insight, have become the “go to” reference for all technical aspects of my work and those of other potters I know. It has become an invaluable resource. Congratulations on your academic approach to everything ceramic.

• Your work is so thorough and helpful Tony. When I read your articles I suddenly feel I know nothing, despite working professionally with ceramics since 1997!

• When it comes to new technology, I'm still thrilled with the chainsaw as apposed to an ax. I really do like glaze testing. You see a recipe in a book but it doesn't do you a lot of good until you can see it on a tile.

• I write to appreciate your good works by way of the articles you made available on the net .. Thanks a million for your good work. From Nigeria.
