Well, I don't like the green of glass under any circumstances (actually it's
nice when it's sandblasted). Even my sunglasses are brown tint rather than
the more typical green tint. I typically mean plexi when I speak of glass,
because I prefer it's color purity. I just wish plexi didn't flex as much as
it does.
