did it have to do with ekati diamonds?

It might have. They said that there is only one mine in
Canada that is operating right now so odds are it's them.

They also mentioned what you said:

canada brands their diamonds so as not to
be confused with the "blood diamonds" from
africa used to raise money for one of the bloody
wars going on over there.


They capped off the segment by reminding everyone how this
huge industry with it's incredible prices is over
something that is completely worthless. It's basically
just a rock.

It serves no purpose (except for industrial diamonds) other
than it simply looks pretty. Otherwise it really has no
other value.

Yet 80% of all the women in the world have at least one.
(I still doubt that figure could be right.)

It all seems so silly...

You women sure do drive up the value of worthless stuff... <vbg>

I could throw out the words "Beanie Baby" but then you
would simply return the volly with the words "Baseball
Cards".
