    Hi all, We are having a big discussion on this on another Board.  The
    information here has been wonderful, and we really appreciate all the
    opinions. 

    This was just mentioned, so I thought I'd throw this out there to
    see if any of you care to comment. 

    "By the way... STRAWBERRY quartz IS a natural stone. It's quartz
    with hematite in it.... However, glass versions are "out there", too. 

    Is this the same thing as 'cherry quartz'?  I thought I was on the
    right track until this popped up, and now I'm totally confused. 

Cheers! Dinah.
