so is a kindle screen actually made from glass or is it a hard plastic?

funny related story:
I fell asleep reading my first kindle 2 while smoking and woke up to find a centimeter long burn on the bezel but the screen was fine... funny 'cause I didn't die in a inferno right? har har..
anyway, it sure seems like glass but kinda feels like plastic to me.
