and you don't believe that w/ the "mixing of the races" that the genetic code will breakdown from it's original and that won't matter.

I am fully aware that people who live in a region where it is always sunny or always frozen will adapt over time and that will be in their genes...what I'm WONDERING about is how will that matter if we are mixed...our children are even more mixed and we just keep on doing it...it's not a theoretical question = it's happening right now. My son is lighter than me, because his father still has signs of African/Cherokee descent...will that still be true for him or his children...especially since we are no longer in Africa but have been in the U.S. for a couple centuries now and have been adapting to this environment.

I can't answer that. Based on the "evidence" we've gathered so far, it would appear that as the skin and eye colors get lighter, the more the skin and eye will become affected by intense visible and infrared radiation.

The pigment melanin appears to be one of the key factors in determining skin color and perhaps eye color. High levels of melanin darken the skin and probably the eyes as well.

I'm absolutely NOT going to get into any "mixing of the races" debate. No way.

Well since Mike is now banned, he won't be able to answer, but I will. YES you can find shade 3/4/5 flidowns from Mike. They are a tad overpriced, but you'll probably have such a hard time finding GLASS flip downs that the added cost is worth it.

hey Jimi,
thats bad news about your eyesight, man, i'm very sorry. also curious, as many probably are (or should be; this could be any of us!).
how did you find out that this damage was from glassblowing? are you still able to work? how big is the stuff that you make, and is it all solid cobalt 6, or something? what kind of lenses do you have? please let us know, this is way important!!

anyways, mike aurelius (aka aura dude) is no longer a member of this board, so you should definitely e-mail him if you want to talk to him. mike@auralens.com

thanks for sharing this, and please keep going!

Hey, I'm just wondering why Mike got banned? I can't see it being from what was said on this thread.

The way I see the whole glasses thing is it's like cars. Am I going to bitch about my face hitting the winshield in a 20 yr old car. Should have sold it for a safer car. Which is what I did got rid of my 75 bronco and got a new Jetta with a real seat belt and a air bag. Safety equipment gets better as time goes on. We all know the risk. I know alot of welders that have bad eyesite from welding for 30yrs and wearing the safety equip. that was cutting edge at the time. But it still sucks when it happens to you. (Sorry about your eyes little jim)

Sounds like Mike wants to make good on fixing some of the problems. Maybe he should offer a reduced cost to change the lenses to the newer lenses as tech. advances. I might buy a pair then.

We should trust our eyes, if it looks bright it is.

And what's wrong with sundance glass, They've been more than helpful to me?

But what do I know I'm just a Redneck with a torch!!!!
There semms to be a lot of negative bitching on this whole board. Seems poeple are quicker to say things when they're not face to face. Later And again Sorry about your eyesite!

Hey Jimi I don't think there was anything else available in 95. Mike has pioneered the safety glass industry for lampers but It's up to you to do your research and stay on top of the game.
When I started lamping didids were the only option. (and thought to be adequate) I now own the top of the line in eyewear. Sorry to hear about your eyes it's important to stay informed on eyewear developments.

I was pretty miffed by the fact that my new aura lenses 1yr old at the time were obsolete. I took it upon my self to go to the local optics store and ask them to outfit my existing glasses with fitted lightweight clipons dipped in the welders green a mere $80. Well worth not having to bust another $$$ on a pair of very expensive eyewear.
