Not the only Pyrex factory

From Pyrex "Pyrex kitchen glassware manufactured for sale in the United States is made at the World Kitchen facility in Charleroi, Pennsylvania. Pyrex products for the European Union are made at a factory in France. EU products and laboratory glassware continue to be made of borosilicate glass." Awg1010 (talk) 16:31, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Pronunciation

In the local parlance, both R's are pronounced. Sorry, I don't know how to change the phonemes. But it is pronounced SHAR-ler-oy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.95.133.32 (talk) 15:18, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
