Exploded!!

I had read about this problem a few years back in Consumer Reports. We use Pyrex measuring cups in our restaurant for all sorts of things. We don't bake with them but they are supposed to be microwave safe, and we do use them that way. But, the one that exploded today was just sitting on the shelf, clean, with nothing in it. Two of us were standing there when it happened. We had glass everywhere. Fortunately, not sharp shards, just rounded edges, but some of the pieces landed almost six feet away from the shelf where the measuring cup was sitting. Scary.
