I don't know about anyone else, but we would probably be interested, as we have microspheres here.  Perhaps Dr. Standaert could put up a post here if enough people request it?

BTW, thanks to everyone who has so far responded to my request for info on the incinerator ash.  In particular, I wasn't able to send a thank-you to Eric Rogers, as the e-mail kept bouncing back at me. :-(
