Hello,
I saw the porcelain that Mile Hi makes called Jiki. Cracked me up. In
Japanese jiki means porcelain
so...................the mile hi clay is Porcelain porcelain. A bit
redundant to my mind. Kind of like the folks who talk about
Mt. Fujiyama (in this case the yama is mountain in Japanese). :-)
Your mileage may vary,

And in Boulder Colorado USA there is
Table Mesa....can you guess the redundancy?
We need a Department of Redundancy Department where
round circles, ink pens, Mt. Fujiyama and Table Mesa
may be filed in round circular files.

in the big city seeing Drs for annual check-ups
