lowering firing temperatures/panel

I am looking for a person who can intelligently serve on a panel to
discuss lowering the temperature of glazes from cone ten to about
cone six. The aesthetics of the finished work will be an important
issue as will be the economic savings.

This individual would serve on a proposed panel at NCECA next
year concerning what we will do when the gas is turned off and an
how we can respond with an appropriate use of resources.

I am also looking for efficient kiln/burner experts and experts in
appropriate functional technologies.

As you all know my deadline is short so if you can respond directly
to me with phone numbers etc. I will contact these people.
