Ruth,

No doubt the real stone boys will shoot me down for some technical reason
(undoubtedly factual) but the BBH guys used some sort of stuff called Akemi
(I think it's some German product made from God knows what [one really
doesn't want to speculate too much where the Krauts are concerned], which it
seems to me I've seen advertised recently in one of the stone mags I get for
free and manage to look at in really dull moments.  I think the Akemi gets
marble dust from whatever one is trying to patch mixed in with it in the
field.

Alright, boys, tell me (and everybody else) I'm wrong.  Or maybe if you put a
filter in the stone before you squeeze the blood out of it.......
