    Not only would I stop buying tanzanite but I would make it my
    business to inform my clients. Did you not see what happend in
    Isreal over the weekend, or NYC Sept. 11? 

    The caveat though is making sure that my information is correct. 
    There are a few  countries that have very bad histories of human
    right offences.  I try and avoid buying items from these countries,
    unless they are essential, and I buy no means buy luxury status
    symbols from these countries.  It is really hard because sometimes
    their items are the best, but I do not always have to have the best. 

    Quite frankly, it was not until I saw an episode on Law and Order
    did I find out that history of what happened to Black's in South
    Africa regarding diamonds. 

    Luckily you now can find diamonds that are mined in Canada.
