    :facepalm:

    Glass is not a liquid nor is it fluid. It does not move over time, it was manufactured thin at the top and thick at the bottom.

    Is glass liquid or solid?

    It is sometimes said that glass in very old churches is thicker at the bottom than at the top because glass is a liquid, and so over several centuries it has flowed towards the bottom. This is not true. In Mediaeval times panes of glass were often made by the Crown glass process. A lump of molten glass was rolled, blown, expanded, flattened and finally spun into a disc before being cut into panes. The sheets were thicker towards the edge of the disc and were usually installed with the heavier side at the bottom. Other techniques of forming glass panes have been used but it is only the relatively recent float glass processes which have produced good quality flat sheets of glass.

    So one must always win an argument and never concede? Or maybe that's the cynics POV.

    I do a little of both, in and out if cars I like to conceal just so I don't rub or scratch it up other then that if its not concealed no big deal. It just depends on the clothes I'm wearing but I do like the post. I think I will try to open carry more.

    Thank you for bringing open carry back to the discussion in this thread. :yesway:

    But if a glass at 50% capacity is neither half full nor half empty, what is neither OC nor CC??? And if it falls in the forest is there a sound or a noise???

    IMO a glass is half empty when it is being depleted and half full when it is being filled ;)
