"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wonderous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross... but it's not for the timid." Q, Q Who

Re: It's not transparent Aluminum...
I'm not sure I understand. The article refers to strength as "damage resistance," but that's not really strength. Is this material the strongest by way of yield strength, tensile strength, or RBM of a given cross-section?
I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast
as Bull offed Custer
