I love this stuff, too. If you've ever seen someone carry a hand-held black light into an antique store, they are looking for uranium glass. They use the light to see if its the real thing or a colored knockoff.

My wife collects this stuff. She has always called it Vasiline Glass, which it looks like in normal light.
