    My rule of thumb is that 99 slit glass image defects are on top, number 100 is under the glass or on the mirror.

    I wish that was the reason but it happened in the Black Hole of my workshop which all of the women in the company give a wide berth to.

    Hi there!
    Welcome to the club, i cracked my 1. ph-slitglass last week! No nice women, only a loud fabrication-site with too much dirt in the air. Have to clean the polygon-mirrors. Remove 3 screws, 2 cables, pull out the ph - CRACK!!!! Luckily the break was a clean one, the whole slit is protected. Don΄t know where my thoughts were, after the crack i was fully awaken.
    Greetings...

    Don't nuke peanut butter.
    I mean don't try to warm a jar of the stuff up in the microwave. Any bits of the foil seal that are left on the top of the jar will cause a lightshow that could cause wrong and stupid things to happen,

    Granma's antique china plates with a gold border trim, give off a good light show in the microwave.
    After the gold short circuits once or twice the china plates are good to use next time.

    It appears to be a one off aurora borealis light show first time around.

    Here's the picture my most recent avatar is based on:

    It's kind of a GM thing though, and as I'm a Ford person if you think you can use it better it's yours. Let me know.
