BTW, Allen - I was thinking more about your scenario and my first assumption
was that you were saying that the lead is already a lump, and sand, due to
heat, would become a lump too, so there's no benefit to use sand over lead.
Plus I was thinking that even superheated and fused, the lump of glass would
probably be a bigger lump than the lead and could actually be worse than lead
because it occupies more space. However, I was thinking more and I'm wondering
now if the heat from impact would render either material molten and simply
fragment into tiny shards either way? What do you think? Although from a safety
aspect, this is all meaningless, since these things occur at impact and if that
impact was a car or a person, the damage or injury would be the same, correct?
