Comment on potential uses for crushed glass.

A nearby stained glass factory has incredible amounts of glass they have to
dispose of--wrong color, beginning/end of run, color change, etc. They run
it through a crusher to the size you describe and folks fill dump trucks
with the stuff and use it in place of gravel in driveways, etc. We used it
in a car lot and never had a single punctured tire from it in over five
years. Looks pretty cool as well.

What about risks from dreathing any glass dust accumulated in the driveway
over time, especially during dry windy times?
