Week 2

We learned a lot from Dean Six's presentation. He was very informative and passionate about glass. Growing up in the plastic age I did not realize the importance of glass. I knew about fancy glasses, bowls and artsy items. Half of my glasses are made out of glass and I remember returning glass coke bottles for deposits, but I had taken it for granted. I did not know the extent that the glass industry was a part of everyday life. I knew that the glass industry was an important industry in West Virginia, but was surprised about how big. Another thing I found interesting was that the glass industry started at Jamestown in the colonies.
