formulae, not recipes.

So often I read a recipe instead of a formula for a glaze on this list. I
even see recipe described as formulae, by those who should know differently.
Not only is it often for a different cone, but it uses foreign Raw
Materials.

Those of us with different RMs from the writers in the USA cannot use such
information. Often even an RM with the same name may have a different
analysis over here from in the US.

So, please friends, use formulae, not recipes.
We can then, with the help of one of the excellent computer programs make up
our own recipes from available RMs.
