• After more than 50 years making pots, selling and teaching I’m done. Worn to a frazzle. Just wanted to let you know that over the years I’ve relied on you for information on materials and glazes. I’ve never been disappointed, and I owe you a big thanks. I’m over 80 and I need to slow down. I’ll continue making pottery, but not so much. I’ve been at it since 1968 (phew!). I thank you for your advice and especially for your website and its cascading information. Always useful, always on target. I’m only sad that I was not able to meet you in person. Peace, love and happiness.

• Muchas gracias por su trabajo, tan meticuloso y de tanta ayuda para comprender los procesos cerámicos.

• If, like Japan, Canada had a custom of selecting certain artisans as “national treasures“ you would certainly qualify - not only for your expertise as a ceramic chemist, but for your compassion for us less expert potters!

• This is really cool. Thanks for sending this to my email.

• Tony, you are wonderful!
