Useless? Within a generation you're enabling QVC and such shit to sell people giant rocks of what look like very flawless precious gems. The level of fraud, malfeasance and general corruption that could be enabled here is breathtaking.

I am dismayed by your lack of vision.

Cubic zirconium is cheaper to make, and it's sparkly, which is what the rubes are after.

Dull gemstones just don't make the nut in Branson, MO.

I say to you that there's a whole category of rubes you're ignoring: Rich rubes. Never underestimate the willingness of a mark to put forward a little knowledge to help convince themselves of the value of the thing.

Have you ever seen a rich American do something tasteful?  Seriously, now.  YOUR blue-bloods may be inbred to the point of having flippers, but they know how to DRESS, for fuck's sake.

Where the hell is the taste in giant lumps of psuedo gems? It's got "USA" practically fucking stamped on this.

Seriously, talk to me about this when lumps are cheap. We'll be very, very rich men.

I disagree, I cannot move on to the next level in World of Goo until I get an absolutely perfect score on the previous one.  In WoG they call this OCD, though a "perfect score" is often even higher than the official "OCD" score.

Anyway sorry for derail.
