Marble the stone

This page needs some sort of branching or differentiation between glass marbles and marble the stone (as in Cararra marble, marble counter tops, etc.. Maybe singular Marble (the building material) and plural Marbles (the glass game pieces) would be enough. Roger Lohmann 08:57, 7 November 2007 (CST)

Actually, I think it's okay as Marbles. The construction material would be Marble with no s. --Robert W King 09:00, 7 November 2007 (CST)
Ditto Robert. You can't have a game of 'marble'. The 's' is significant here. Derek Harkness 10:46, 7 November 2007 (CST)
