Re: Chalk?



After the extensive and erudite discussions of angular momentum and the
olympics, I am almost embarrassed to ask a "trivial" question. I have
observed recently that the chalk we have in our building is terrible. It
is very soft and brittle. In the past the chalk did not exhibit these
properties. After this was mentioned to those who buy, I was told that
they could no longer find any "good quality" chalk. I was used to using a
thicker, yellow, chalk by Alpha called 'Polychromatic Alphasite triple
size chalk" by Weber Costello ib Chicago. Our secretary tried to find this
chalk but could not. Does any chalk user know of a source for this (or
some other low dust, hard) chalk.
You can reply offlist.
