| This is really beautiful to watch if you're into technology! Glass holds the technology. All of the technology is beautiful.

| Lovely. I think most the technology to do all those things exists. I think it might still be a little while before we see roll-up glass. Otherwise it looks like Corning is viewing a world populated with large- scale iPads with a few new functions. Not sure I want people interrupting me when I'm brushing my teeth. Sometimes one just wants a quiet moment alone, IMO. |

| Owens-Corning has become a pretty amazing company... really changing and driving new technologies. When I had to get my new roof I was looking into green possibilities. Owens Corning make a shingle with a glass coating the reflects back UV thus cooling the roof/attic space and cooling the house. Not conducive to Phoenix conditions in several ways, however. Sun, wind. "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.
