That's very true, and that's hard-forced thermal shock.
It's pretty easy to make a small bead with Effetre (10mm or so) and just leave it out to "air cool" and it won't usually even break, let alone shatter (like when you put it from torch to water). That's why Cherie's problem seems so weird to me. I'm very interested to see how she solves it!
