seriously Keith, think you would be making a great contribution to the world of glass with a pictorial guide with brief captions - tis indeed the image that's the most important aspect when trying to make an id.

An example of how modern quality images have transformed another academic area, is the world of natural history  ….    80 - 90 years or more ago, researchers had to rely on text only, and had to use 'keys' when attempting an id for certain species  …………
'if it has three pairs of legs, go to No. 5 in the key list
so you go to No. 5  …………..    'does it have hairs on top and bottom, then go to No. 12            and so on, and half an hour later you still weren't entirely sure what you'd got.

but now we have such good pix, no need for all that key stuff.

and you can say you've been published ;D
