Wow, Daniel

    I remember in the early 1980s there was a hubbub about some
    irradiated "London blue" topaz coming into the states and still being
    hot (made the Geiger counter spike) so all the blue topaz got pulled. 


    But from the list you posted almost all the major gemstones are
    suspect. Some mall retailers may just have empty their cases!
