Good god! I thought the internet couldn't throw more things at me than it already did.
I won't post pics because, they're not too "pretty" to see.

I think it's the right time to confess my SiO2phobia (glass-phobia). I once smelted glass in my high-temp furnace. Picture a very soft sticky chewing gum type substance that likes to form long thin strips that when cool, can shatter into thousands of tiny razor sharp pieces...that's glass when you heat it up to 800C.
I don't know if you know...but the neon lamp glass is the worst kind. It shatters literally into razorblades.
