    I, too, share everyone's concern about fanciful naming of stones,
    yellow and otherwise, but while Fire Mountain may be less than
    forthcoming about accurate nomenclature, they are not alone. I just
    returned from Tucson where it seemed the majority of vendors were
    selling stones with misleading names. So let's be fair and not tar
    any one vendor unfairly. 

    We all know that a smart buyer is wary but I think we also need some
    regulated standards. This exists in other industries. After all, if
    I buy cow's milk, I can be pretty sure it isn't goat milk, and I'm
    not worried that the pine I just bought for a new deck might be some
    other wood.
