This is off topic, but I know several posters here live in or near Phoenix.
I was there last week (enjoying the heat) and took in the Chihuly exhibit currently at the Desert Botanical Garden. You should see this if you have the chance. Chihuly does installations of his blown glass pieces and this one is spectacular. There must be thousands of individual pieces throughout the garden.
Check it out!

Hey, thanks for the info... my girlfriend's mother is a BIG Chihuly fan. I don't think she'd be able to make it out there before the exhibit ends, but I sent her a link to the Garden's web site, anyway.

Yep, that's it.
They have volunteers (one's a friend) who go around dusting all those pieces of glass every day or so. It's out in the open, so you can imagine the dust problem.
