Life was simpler then.

[QUOTE=Tom9589;3195034]I fully understand the principle behind automotive safety plate glass. Why did we go for so long with a separate safety glass with a huge air gap between the glass and the CRT?


We had a 21FB set with come in with a BB hole in it that went through both the safety glass and the CRT face glass. Just left a hole the size of the BB. We couldn't believe it. A one in a million shot, kid.

BTW, there was no "huge air gap".
