Dear Ann Semple,

You say < This is the recipe from Trevor Youngberg's article on =
Programmable low fire glazes in the May/June Clay times.>

Not all of us are fortunate to have access to this magazine. So please =
enlighten us. What are "Programmable low fire glazes" ?

Is this a new breed or recipes or is it to do with using a kiln =
controller? If it is the latter, then it would seem that instructions =
are required to obtain the designed effects.

Best regards,
