bob fritz has given me a great idea.
mount a kitchen sieve/strainer on the end of a stout stick. (of course i
use duct tape.)
when you want to mix your glazes, use it. it catches
all the junk that has gotten in your bucket, and it mixes
like a gem. soft and easy. very low tech.

not prehistory lily, just old enough to know some things.
one of my pet peeves in teaching...young teachers that did not
know how to blow their nose, calling old teachers dinosaurs.
and many using the `rat system` instead of working together.

i have not heard from the sigilata sisters yet....don't know if they
will be at nceca to help with the clayart room. teri is such a kick.
( and watching her dance with russell, god, to die for.)

Oh dear, oh dear. There was a group formed as far as I know by Ron
Larsen, called The Dinosaur Potters; old style, low tech, sensible,
functional potters. It is term of respect (the logo was a dinosaur
stomping a RAM)

So Mel, while I agree with your message: som of us call others of us
inosaurs with great love.
