Hello Wally and Gary, My daughter (who is, perhaps, becoming over-educated) told me the bright orange pieces of Red Wing I have are dangerous to eat out of, and that I shouldn't even have them in the house and she isn't sure about any of the other colors either and what am I trying to do, give us all cancer, or what?!? It seems some prof put a geiger counter to a Fiesta (sorry) pitcher and the thing went crazy. I checked the archives and Gary mentions uranium used in the glaze for the red wings but I could find nothing else. I really want some information that would help to put her mind at ease. Thank you in advance. rolyn
