Student News Net: We just received the answers from Leonard Marty. We will post them tomorrow under the link to our story to the left. One note: In the video, Leonard said glass IS a supercooled liquid. The audio is sometimes difficult to hear. We wanted to make sure that question was answered today! And to answer the questions on where to find classes, in addition to the Glass Art Society Leonard suggests using Google to search for glassblowers in your area. More tomorrow....
