• Anyway I thank you for your efforts in putting together this wealth of ceramic science in this accessible manner.

• This article was very interesting and prompted me to write to thank you for the fantastic resources of DigitalFire and Insight-Live. I'm a fairly new potter---both to the craft and glaze chemistry---and your scientific approach is an absolute treat compared to vague advice often trafficked outside of industry. Furthermore, Insight is a wonderfully powerful tool which has defined how I approach testing and analysis of clay and glazes. It's incredibly refreshing to have information usually buried under the expense and jargon of industry journals and textbooks freely available.

• THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your continuing contributions to the ceramic world! [Yes, all caps is shouting, intentionally so!] I've been following Digital Fire for about 25 years now. Many of those years passed with my studio packed in crates in storage. I now have leads on space to reopen. You've kept my passion alive through your postings.

• You have such a brilliant analytical mind, able to find solutions to many ceramic problems. You have accomplished so much in your life, helping us potters understand what we are doing. I cannot thank you enough for your vast ceramic reference library online. I think you are a national treasure.

• I am truly grateful for the remarkable resource you have built for the community.
