1)lists of attributes known for glass (medium)
RI (at D line), Ca, Fe, Al, Mn, Sr, Mg, Ba, Ti, Zr, Na


2)sets of known distributions for those attributes (weak)
graphs of elemental composition, but no tables


3)forensic decision procedures based on glass fragments (strong)
By comparing all of the above attributes, it is extraordinarily unlikely to find two unrelated pieces of glass that match – between 10^-5 and 10^-13 (this would be the denominator in the likelihood ratio

4) Conclusions
