 A lot of soil people call clay is not clay, it is silt and will not work. I'm pretty sure the Ga., red, clay is silt and fine sand, and fine mica.

That's pretty neat! What about blue clay that smells of decomposing vegetation, I find it quite frequently here in the PNW. I've always thought about gathering the various clays I find during my excavating operations and trying a pot, haven't done it cause I didn't want a bunch of dirt collecting dust, being the speed at which I seem to get to my projects is slower then molasses in January.
