         This is not true. Try running your windshield wipers
        without the rubber.

All generalisations have exeptions, however it's usually the road
grit and oxides on the end of the blades that do the scratching.

        And lastly, the quartz windows of the EPROMs
        are harder than glass.

As can be ceramic chip packages and the PCB itself (glass
fiber laminate).

I was.
