Cultured marble |
Back when she was Lindsay Champion (but before she was Madison Whitfield), Smith took the OQ literally. Yup, Megan's answer comprised two parts:
"Faux marble is usually created with paint techniques... Marble is a metamorphic rock made of limestone and calcite..."
If one steps back and contemplates the question for more than a few seconds, one will realize that the OQ really meant cultured marble, not faux marble. Those two are similar enough (to a layman) that the question is valid. It deserves a real answer instead what someone who is already a four-time DotD pounded out sans thought.
Smith's 10-word definition of real marble is close enough for government work (if the government is that of Ukraine). Where she blew it is in not explaining cultured marble. That's an engineered stone, once made of grains of natural marble mixed with a resin. The stuff is molded in sheets and other shapes, plus it's available in a variety of colors. It's more economical than real marble, too.
That's the answer our Dumbass of the Day should have been giving the poor schmuck, not some rubbish about painting techniques. Think reasonableness next time, Lindsay / Madison / Megan, Reasonableness!
