Subject: Glassware Safety

I have two questions:

1)  Does anyone have a glove recommendation for washing glassware?  The 
intent is for protection against cuts as opposed to chem resistance.

2)  Does anyone have a policy or any thoughts about glassware  "life 
expectancy " (beakers and flasks)?  That is - other than chips, cracks, 
fractures, etc., is there some guidance as to when glassware should be 
replaced?

Thanks

Larry
