    Ahh, my bad here guys. I believe I stated that it was illegal to use
    the term "cultured" diamonds to refer to synthetics. It turns out
    that the FTC does, in fact, allow the term "cultured" diamonds for
    synthetic diamonds. However almost all industry, ethics based
    organizations, believe it is an improper use of the term (and are
    actively petitioning the FTC to disallow the phrase).
