The Getty has updated their website to include video clips (realplayer
files) of the making of a Greek vase and on Maiolica. If you visit the
site listed above you can look at the making art section and click on
either of the two titles in initiate the video. My reception was not great
and the information is pretty basic--targeted at school age people or folks
unfamiliar with basic clay techniques-- but the little bit on firing the
kiln is cool. You may want to give it a try just for fun.

Boy, I have a lot of flowers coming out of the ground in my yard today
here in upstate South Carolina.
