Charlie, Greg has gotten a jury duty notice for a time we were supposed to be on our cruise.  He just sent them a copy of the summons and our itinerary from the cruise line and they dismissed him.  <br />

The granite is real - they only carry natural stone there.  I haven&#39;t heard of any &quot;man-made&quot; granite.  The countertop guy did have some samples of what he called &quot;fabricated quartz&quot; though.  The main problem I am forseeing with the real granite is that he said it has to be sealed once a year.  According to him, it really won&#39;t be a big deal to do it - easy for him to say as he won&#39;t be the one performing the task&#33;&#33;&#33;
