    I believe that what Ron is referring to here is the fact that it is
    still exceedingly difficult to produce colorless diamonds in a lab
    and therefore Gemesis was comparing their product to canary diamonds
    rather than admitting that they have yet to be able to produce
    colorless stones. 

    Also for those of you who think synthetic is just fine I'll remember
    that when the machines available to man start cranking out your
    designs for 1/10th the price and claim that they are just as good as
    the handmade product.
