Glad to hear. I found out the hard way some years ago that there's a manufacturer trying to pass off tempered lime soda (i.e. flint) glass as "Pyrex" (my old 12" was one BTW), not borosilicate. The former has a slight bluish tint whereas the latter is water clear to slightly sand-coloured or green.
