    It is so hard to keep up with them, I don't even try. One post today
    mentioned green "amethyst" which is gemologically impossible. I
    sincerely don't mean to pick on anyone, but actually knowing what
    gem materials are is the only safe way to protect yourself from
    being ripped off, and from ripping off your clients in return. 

Okay, I'll shut up now.
