Freak mishap in the kitchen tonight

[UberKul]

My wife Christy sports an ugly scar on her wrist and nerve damage from a casserole dish that did the same thing shortly after we got married. Army docs fixed her up as best they could and she started legal action but the bowl went missing so the case fizzled out. She swears to this day all she did was set it on the counter and boom, it disintegrated. This was 18 years ago.

I've had pyrex do that to me, old trick for cleaning coffee pots in the resturant buss is to use Ice, salt and lemon juce, swirl it around and it removeds the stains. If you rinse in hot water afterwards they explode every time.

As far as I can tell the cassreole dish is manufatured from a molton mixture of high S-value phenylhydrobenzamine and 5% reminative tetryliodohexamine. Both of these liquids have specific pericosities given by P = 2.5C.n^6-7 where n is the diathetical evolute of retrograde temperature phase disposition and C is Cholmondeley's annular grillage coefficient. Initially, n was measured with the aid of a metapolar refractive pilfrometer and therein lies the problem. Obviously, a transcendental hopper dadoscope should have been used. Nuff said. :cheffsmiley:

I nominate Paul as the bartender for the next overnight. If he can mix that much BS together a good drink should be easy. :yahoo:

Before a definative answer to this mystery can be postulated, a couple of questions must be asked:

1. Where was Fencer? (In proximity to the exploding dish.)

2. Is Fencer's life insurance policy currently paid and in good-standing?

I'm just sayin'...

Or, CSI.

Are Pyrex Bowls Dangerous?
Maybe. Pyrex bowls were originally made of something called borosilicate glass, which is very resistant to thermal shock. Currently, Pyrex is made of soda-lime glass, presumably as a cost-cutting measure, as soda-lime glass is very inexpensive. Also, Pyrex is no longer made by the original manufacturer, and is essentially a brand name, rather than a material.

Woah!

There's a huge difference between borosilicate glass, and soda-lime glass.

I make lampwork glass beads. I literally take a small colored glass rod and heat it, wrap it around a stainless coated rod and make decorative beads.

some of the most striking colors are made with borosilicate glass. Soda glass is way soft.... like using a drinking class or a glass coke bottle.

the old Pyrex bowels would break if you forgot and left the burner on the stove on and set a bowl on top...>Gg

Guess I wont' get any new Pyrex.. it's just a name... Like Kleenex or Zerox... hmmm maybe not a fair analogy...
