Re: [ATM] Source for Dental Stone

[Ken Lowther <hermit@outofoptions.org>]

Early in the list history I would receive 'free samples' from other 
list members
with 'surplus'.  I ended up giving Bill Prewitt the last of my 36# grit that I
hadn't used.  Name on the box was Bob Goff.  :(  Almost hated to see it 
go, but
what better use than Bill's 30? ;)

Several sites have popped up with people trying to fill the need on a semi
commercial basis.  Some cover little more than cost.  Not going to quit their
day jobs any time soon.
