Peter doesn't mind if I correct his spelling. That is a tough word indeed.

Would slugging someone with glass bakeware be considered a Pyrex Victory?

If the glass bakeware turned out to be a priceless antique, it would be a pyrrhic pyrex victory.

Haven't we been through this before? I see many people commenting without their names being displayed. Is what I said really harmful to anyone? I kind of feel like I'm being singled-out when almost every time I post on this forum you ask me to post my name when there are many many others who you don't ask this of.
