Insulator of the Week (IOTW)

On December 26, 2007, Dwayne Anthony sent a note to ICON asking about the idea an "Insulator of the Week" topic on ICON. A "Topic-master" would post a short introduction on a different, randomly selected, CD style each week. The chosen CD style would then be open for general discussion by all ICONers, with encouragement to contribute general comments, informational data, research, patent info, etc., plus post photos of favorites from your collection. Here is the result:
