Though I may be kicked out of the Capitalist Club for revealing the secret,
here is a short instructional video on how to perform the handshake:

Take care.

James,

That's it. (The fact that you know and watch the Simpsons tells me a lot
about
you- sicko.)




Guilty as charged!

To be truthful, I don't watch TV per se, Simpsons or otherwise. Haven't in
a dozen years. We have no cable, no satellite, and no set new enough for
over the air reception. In violation of my neo-luddite roots, we do have a=
n
ancient television set hooked to a dvd machine, and I do typically treat
myself to a nightly episode of The Simpsons as I enjoy an ice-cold bottle o=
f
Founders Brewery "Dirty Bastard Ale", which was, of course, named after me.

All the best.

...James

Hi John,
The secret part is that you can deflocculate the glaze and solve the craw=
=3D
ling=3D20
problem. There's been a lot of talk about flocculating glazes, but someti=
=3D
me one=3D20
needs to go the other way with glazes high in plastic clay like Grolleg.

Great idea, I will give it a try. I sometimes do it to spray glazes.
