Well, it’s been a long time since I last posted here.  Not too long ago, I even thought about swapping out for a new LiveJournal blog since I’m over there so much.

Nah, I’ll stick this out, even if no one reads it

I get news feeds from a couple of places that deal with jewelry in some fashion, one is more metaphysical than the other.  And it’s the other I want to link to: Gem Wise, specifically this post: http://rwwise.com/blog/?p=49

It’s an interesting “Letter to the Editor” on color diffusion in certain stones and what causes it, based on an article written in the magazine “Colored Stone”.  The author of Gem Wise sounds very angry with the editor of CS, and I can’t say as I blame the man – there doesn’t seem to be any science in what the CS editor was talking about.

Gems are not a pseudoscience.  And shouldn’t be treated as a pseudoscience.  But that’s what it feels like the editor of Colored Stone is doing.  Yeah, this post doesn’t make a lot of sense, but there it is.
