Your posting makes me think about perhaps getting a stone just for pizza --
well, now, that's pretty frugal, isn't it?
I have not thought of that previously, but a pizza can really destroy nice
clean stones that one uses for bread.
I value the stones I have now, so I may try something different, or even try
one of those -- is it? Fibrament?
I think I'll keep my eyes "peeled" in the next few months.
