Craig - quite obviously my reference to 'glowing', was only if the material contained Uranium - apologies if my explanation was less than clear, and like Sue I mis-interpreted the meaning of rock crystal. My comment about the potential danger, was not of course from the glass (I have shed loads of it in the house) but rather from the U.V. bulb, which apparently if you stare at for too long may damage eyesight. Certainly if the envelope breaks you should never look at the naked filament. However, it was a less than serious comment, since no one is going to use a three pin 125 watt U.V. bulb at their bedside......at least I don't think so (I am not referring to blacklight tubes).
As a suggestion to ease the confusion, how about this.......
All green glass (irrespective of shade) containing U..... we call simply Uranium glass ..........all green glass (with a yellowish hue) but without U. ....we call Vaseline glass........glass which is simply green (without any hue) we call (wait for it.............green glass)
Might this avoid some of the terminology problems, which as Craig points out, is presently less than clear because of the situation where some 'Vaseline' glass does have U. and some doesn't, but is all lumped together as 'Vaseline' glass. See you all tomorrow after my boot sale (weather permitting).
