    Hello Fredricka; Thank you for your reply.  That was very
    informative.  I had known that John Paul Miller had never been
    perticularly forthright concerning the perticulars of his technique
    at one time.  By the time I met him, he was more talkative.  I
    learned a lot from him back in 1989 when he visited Southern Illinois
    University in Carbondale where I was a graduate metals student.  One
    of my fellow students at the time, Doug Harling, was doing a lot of
    research on it and I picked up a lot from him, although I seldom use
    it in my own work.  I believe Miller's interest in granulation came
    about as a result of his interest in enameling.  Seems he needed to
    construct his articles without having the problems associated with
    solder contaminating the enamels, as well as it's melting temperature
    being relatively low in relationship to hard enamels.  I've always
    had a great respect and gratitude for the pioneers in our field of
    endeavor, and henceforth, I will consider Jean and your father, as
    well as yourself among them.  Perhaps you could direct us to books or
    web sites where we could view your work and theirs. 

Respectfully,
David L. Huffman
