[blparent] adding texture to game pieces

[Barbara Hammel]

I'm wondering.  If they have the little squares like waffles, could you fill 
a certain number with glue.  You know, you could put gle in one square for 
blue, two for green, etc?

If wisdom's ways you wisely seek, five things observe with care:  of whom 
you speak, to whom you speak, and how and when and where.
