    Bravo Mary:  I totally agree with your idea - unless you are totally
    into displays, I think you should enjoy your opal by wearing it.  But
    then I feel the same way about my sterling silver tableware.  I used
    it and my good crystal the entire time my kids were growing up - you
    know what, a couple of pieces got ground up in the disposal and a
    couple of pieces of crystal got broken, but for the most part I still
    have the rest of it today (41 years later) and my kids enjoyed eating
    with the "good stuff".  Why save things - life is too short and is
    meant to be enjoyed.
