General questions re life in general. 
Why does some modern "stainless steel" show rust marks ?
Is it cheap Chinese crap ?

The British Stainless Steel Association (and they should know) suggest that "stainless" means 'stain-less' not 'stain-impossible' i.e. it will stain less, not be without stain. Having said that they do comment that it should not corrode "under normal atmospheric conditions." |

Ah. Obvious now I've read it.
Similar to the puncture *resistant* tyres on my bike, Conti 4 seasons if of interest
Certainly not puncture proof.
I had some Schwalbes that did not puncture in a few thousand miles. Shame they made the ride on the bike horrid but they didn't puncture !

Similarly, a.f.a.i.k. there is really no such thing as "bullet-proof glass." It is all bullet-resistant glass.
