Hi all,

I was just pondering the idea of "gurus" & I thought the following questions
may hopefully make some interesting & entertaining discussion:)

Including people in this newsgroup & others in the field, whom do you
consider to be the present-day "gurus" in glass-craft? ...I mean the people
who guide others, are inspirational & highly respected for their work &
contributions in this field.

Who is your favourite guru & why?

Please take the question in a light-hearted way. Maybe this is just a chance
to honour someone you respect. Maybe some readers will check out your "guru"
and also enjoy them.

Tony Burch

Most of us pros here are the guru's to the masses that pass through our
doors on a daily basis. That said after 25 years of doing this, there's
still alot to learn. I'm not shy about screwing up. I'm more interested in
getting an answer than showing off what I know. There's no one answer to
most of the questons posed here. We all have our own way of doing things
that work for us. I have my specialty people that I seek out for questions I
can't answer. Most of the areas of glasswork I stay away from, have an
expert right here on this NG. This is a great resource, but only DeBrady
fancies himself a guru.
