Dean,

: ... Also, his point is
: that glass is lighter than epoxy, so why not fill with glass rather than
: epoxy?

Perhaps you meant it the other way around? I believe glass has a density roughly 2 times that of epoxy. I really don't want to wade into G.R.'s house-of-mirrors to see if that is the way he intended it.

On a way-picky materials note, the glass we use is amorphous, not crystalline (I said it was way-picky, and mean no offense).
