Glad to share.
Another fun thing about the exhibit is that while they were installing, a large portion of an adjacent parking lot was fenced off. The team had the ovens in that area and people could watch everyone work from outside the fence. There were a few times scheduled for interested people to come in and see the process up close while Dale and his students took time to teach people how they do everything.

They glass is a lot stronger than it looks, but some pieces do break and chip in transport. They anticipate this, and make a whole lot of replacement 'just-in-case' pieces.
The team also has glass ovens that can be moved to location in case they have to make fresh pieces as they put an exhibit together.
Any piece that is chipped or broken or otherwise can not be used is to be destroyed completely. One day Dale himself was doing the honors of busting some glass rods in a parking lot and having a hard time getting the thickest pieces to split.

A sergeant with the local police department that he knows personally. He requested him to come to his home for protection while he reported his 9/11 findings to authorities.

Judging from his facebook page, he seems like a normal, sane, boring, suburban dad. Up until this week anyway.
He's into following the weather, loves his wife and kids, and got his covid booster.

He was not calling 911 to report his "evidence."
He called 911 to request that police come to his home to protect his family while he reported his findings to the government. He specifically requested a sergeant that he knew personally. I don't know if that guy ever showed up, but it seems he took his family on the run shortly after.

The story began with him calling 911 and asking for police to come to his home while he reported the sensitive information he believed he had discovered. He works in financial software.

Based on his facebook posts, he does not seem to be conspiracy obsessed at all. Just a normal boring suburban dad.

The day before they went missing he called 911 asking for an officer to be sent to his home for protection. He believed that he had uncovered some information about the 9/11 attacks and was scared for his life.

She didn't report or post about it, the hospital did.
