Hairline crack on joint. Fix possible?

[EverythingsHazy]

Can you just crazy glue it, if the crack isn't all the way through the glass, as somewhat of a reinforcement?

This appears to be just a surface crack, but I don't want the neck to end up snapping off during cleaning or from getting wet or something, if it isn't already too late for the piece.

Also, how hard would it be for someone with access to glassblowing tools to fix it with a torch or something?
Any resident glassworkers here know?

I recall @herbivore21 introducing us to Hexatal (sp?) as a good way of mending cracked glass...

If you were going to try a quick patch over the top you could also try aquarium Silicone (was mentioned to me as an option by someone a while ago.

Or something I've used is a 2-part glass epoxy. I got it from my local hardware store, and it fixed up a pinhole leak perfectly

The crack isn't letting any water or air leak out, so I don't think it is all the way through, or in need of being sealed for function, yet. I just don't want it to expand, or to be causing the neck to be really weak, and then become a problem, so I figured if there is something that could add some strength back to the spot, it'd be a good idea to try. It's very tiny right now. I don't even know if krazy glue or anything else would seep in very much if at all, since it is really a hairline fracture, but it's worth shot.
