		Corning used to make almost all of the thermometer glass in the country -- including the glass for medical thermometers -- and it invented the technology that allows dishes to go from freezer to oven to table (and invented the process for applying those floral patterns too).

		During the early heyday of the railroads, Corning solved a vexing, dangerous problem, which was to design signal-lantern glass that wouldn't shatter, despite being hot on the inside and covered with ice or snow on the outside.

	Jobling, Greener, and Corning: Sunderland Glass
		The first chronicled production of glass in England was in 674 AD when the Venerable Bede described how glass makers from Gaul were brought over to make windows for a newly built church and monastery in Sunderland.
		His most significant contribution however was to come when he acquired from the Corning Glass Co. the licence to manufacture and market PYREX heat resistant glassware in Great Britain and the Empire (excluding Canada) in 1921.
		The glass was to be much less expensive than hand finished glass yet sufficiently attractive that a higher price than normal for flint glass would be accepted.
