Hello Ann
Outside the town where I live there is a big river.
We dig our clay from that river.
Lucky to us, some miles back there is a big pub. The new people in the town,
as well
as the poor people, hobos, wanders and hippies, buy first the cheapest
beer. O god!
The beer is afoul they say and through it to the river!
I might be wrong! as they dumped it with the aluminium cans , it might have
more
alumina, I will ask the glaze gurus, Perhaps this is how the plastic kaolin
is created?
