Is that all 52 sq ft of granite costs... what are folks getting so all
worked up and uppity about.. that's peanuts for that much new counter
top. I never seriously priced granite but with the way people are
carrying on I'm thinking it must cost like 15-20 thousand dollars for
granite counters... 3-5 grand for counters that will last an entire
lifetime is chicken feed... I spent that much on my PC... people
spend more on a mediocre TV system that will be obsolete in five
years.
