Well put George. I totally agree. I am actually one of the nicest people you would ever meet. I was brought up to be polite, hold doors for people, and to give up my seat for my elders. But I also don't take things lying down. I totally agree with you about "misinformation". In today's world, that term has a very negative and intentional connotation. That really set me off. I will go out of my way to help anyone here. I had a wonderful group of dealers, collectors, lapidarists, and jewelers to help me out. They showed me generosity that i never knew from another group of people and i try to carry on that way. I will never belittle anyone here for a lack of knowledge. Please if anyone has a question, I would go out of my way to help answer it and not judge you on it at all. I am still a beginner in many ways and still have a ton to learn. I have learned a lot from the members of the board and will try my best to always return the favor. I am not a know it all and i often make mistakes. I also think that humor is one of the more important human traits and in this world that we live in, its a necessity to keep from going insane or dying of a coronary. Anytime someone has a question and is too embarrassed to ask it on the board, instant message (IM) me and i will get back to you and do my best to help you. Just click on my name and go to the bottom of my page and "send member an instant message" or something like that. I also know a bit about computers, specimen collecting, and military weapon systems.

my time is short, i do not reflect my emotions in my posts. They are to the point,(as much as it can be). Forums are here online for discussion of informations. Wether that info is misleading or not. Every member has the right to voice they're information. If my my post imply driect accusations then i will shut up and leave. But they dont, they are to the point and not inflated. I am sorry but my camera/photo access is even more limited than my internet access. I am not able to readily show photo examples.
I am not here to make anyone angry nor am i offended when my posts come off as stern. I am just providing what info i can to the subject of my interests. On limited time (and patenice sometimes)
Mark, i am not accussing you are providing misinforming to the members of this forum. But rather tryin to keep info on track to the provided thread. Its extemely common for info in forum threads to go away from the driection of intention. And there is always a member or two that will stand by that info, simply to make a point. We are those members in this stance. nothing more.
George, if ball busting is belittling, i will be qiute and go my way. Sorry if you feel that way but its about keeping info on track. Let me ask then, would Mica be Chatoyant? Think about how that info can be classified to a hobbyist. Now think about how that info is used by both novice and professional sellers. I can atest i've seen mis-information used by many over seas sellers in which that info was generated from a popular lapidary fourm/s. If The classification of Chatoyant is loose, in less than a year that info will be repeated online by the unknonwing. Simply because they read it online.

Aqua Victoria Stone. A manmade stone which the inventor took the secret of, to his grave. There is a very limited supply of this stuff left in collectors hands and it is quite expensive. Its pattern and color will change as you change your angle of view. It is translucent and easy to work with. It was produced in roughly 2 dozen different colors.

I would really love to have more, and various colors. There are some cabbers that really concentrate on this stuff and make incredible cabs. I have a small misshapen piece of yellow and yellowish green.
