Hi Mark!
Sounds like a good Collector's Corner article (hint hint).
I have an excellent example (I think) of a bubble coming out. I think I'll
use it
for May's Tektite of the Month.
Thanks for your input!!

I have a few of these somewhere and have many others I strangely left in
dealer boxes. There are a couple variations in these from what I have
noticed. Some have nice rims...where others are kind of sunk in with no
rim. Also, and almost more puzzling, I have seen more that are oval
rather then round. I would think...without anything to back me
back...that the more round versions with nice rims are bubbles coming
out. It just seems to me that would happen. Oval ones that are sunk in
are a little more confusing as I can't seem to image injection or bubbling
out forming such features. I am of course ignoring other forces at work
during or after tektite formation...such as motion or weathering.
Clear Skies,
Mark Bostick
