My mistake. After reading this I got my issues out since this cut down
the time frame and found it. It's the May/June 1997 issue on page 20
and 32. They used the Silpat and quote a price of $16 - a*lot* cheaper
than I've seen. Their contact: Demarle Inc., 2666-B Route 130 North,
Cranbury, NJ 08512, 609-395-0219.
