Kaylagee - I enjoyed reading the dialogue between you and your mom. (who I happen to agree with for the most part - though like you, I feel this can extend to clothes, bags, foods like you pointed out) Thanks for sharing.

DiamondLil- it''s the Portuguese Diamond from the Natural History Museum''s Gem Collection here in DC. It''s 127 cts.

You can read more about it here: http://www.gimizu.de/sgmcol/html/portgs.html and here:

It apparently has strong flourescence, and the article mentions the stone would appear yellowish without it! I took the picture in my other post during a visit to the Smithsonian. It''s only down the street from my work, so...
