There are many theories as to why some Brits like to drink many pints of beer, smash the glasses, and then jab the jagged edges into each other's faces.
Some blame "glassing" on the disappearance of the Colonial Empire. Some point to the limited licensing hours, which have traditionally encouraged little Englanders to down 10 pints in three hours, until their legs have left them for another paradigm. But what has always been clear is that beer glasses made from glass have led far too often to glass eyes.
Now, however, scientists have discovered a way to cut down on cut-throat midnight surgeries. According to a Friday post on The Independent , Britain will soon enjoy beer glasses that simply don't shatter.
British pubs are such pretty places. It's a shame what happens within.
