    The answer to that is if the consuming public doesn't know any
    better they should be educated by the person they are purchasing
    from. They shouldn't be encouraged to think and use the wrong terms.
    They should also not be abused by letting them have a misconception
    and purchasing based on that. 

    The terms have been beat to death we all know amethyst is not green.
    The word amethyst in 'green amethyst' is replacing the word 'quartz'
    because 'quartz ' doesn't sell as well.
