    This is the first time I've posted, here, and I just want to clarify
    some things regarding metal clay. PMC is a brand name. It is,
    currently, one of TWO brands of metal clay on the market. The other,
    Art Clay Silver, is also 99.9% fine silver after firing. They are
    similar products, not identical, but using PMC to refer to the medium
    is a misnomer. The medium is metal clay, and using "PMC" to encompass
    the medium is like using Coca Cola to refer to all cola drinks. I
    would very much appreciate everyone's cooperation in being more
    specific in your reference to the medium in the future. Especially
    since Art Clay has such incredible artists, like Gordon Uyehara,
    whose work rivals anything traditional metalsmithing has to offer.
