I'm not insisting, Steve, I'm trying to learn.  I went to Warm Glass and couldn't find anything that explained the difference in striking and oxidizing.  If you know, please tell me.

nope, not yet.  After I broke the last bowl because I didn't anneal it long enough I put some one layer goodies in the kiln - I knew I wouldn't screw them up!! Will finish them now then try the nuggets again.

The difference may have to do with a large body of salt water that separates the land mass.
I've always heard of changing glass color under heat as striking. Generally selenium colors strike

Let me know how it goes.  I may have another nugget option if needed!

Another nugget option? ...mmmm! Pray tell! You mean in terms of making some? If so, is it like the bar idea...like the multi coloured ones I showed here earlier?
