       "NEW - France's glass manufacturer Duralex suspends operation for 5 months due to surging electricity bills."Our bill (for gas and electricity) has gone from 3 to 13 million euros per year, or 46% of our turnover," the CEO of Duralex said."(via disclosetv)Personally, I doubt there are many households in Europe that don't have at least one Duralex drinking glass in the house.Also, do not confuse this with Durex, which is something else.
