I'm assuming if it works, you'd end up with a buch of little itty bitty diamonds, but i'm just wondering if it WORKS? Seems too umm, how do i say it... retarded to work, read it and you'll see. They say this is how businesses manufacture their own diamonds, i have troble beliving that. Think of how much damage a 12 gauge would do if you loaded it up with all the little diamonds you made, you'd be able to kill the loch ness monster with that biyatch. WOOT!

Synthetic diamonds, often called 'created diamonds' are real manufactured diamonds. They are most commonly produced at industrial grade for use as abrasives. Gem quality stones are also manufactured. You can even have a diamond made out of your corpse ( www.lifegem.com ).

Um, this is old news? Companies have been taking people's ashes and turning it to a diamond, for a price. Diamonds are not that hard to find or make (in respect to other valuable gems), De Beers just have a monoploy and excellent marketing team.

The secret is to find someone that is really tight-a$$ed, shove coal up his bum, and have him/her munch down some halepenos.

Diamonds be poppin' out everywhera!

And where is the link? Is this the wired article?

I figured diamonds would carry some mythical power that would be able to send nessy back to whatever dimension it came from. Meant as a joke though

I got some real non-carbon diamonds to sell to you. And a bridge.

Also, lets ban dihydrogen oxide, because it

# Causes excessive sweating and vomiting
# A major component of acid rain
# Can cause severe burns in the gaseous state
# Accidental inhalation can kill you
# Primary contributor to erosion
# Decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes
# Has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients
# May dissolve metal ions especially in the presence of road salt

Step 1: Place 2 pieces of charcoal, covered with 2 ounces of peanut butter inside a covered, microwaveable container and microwave on high for half an hour in 10 minute increments.

Step 2: Saturate the charcoal with charcoal lighter fluid and then light. If you are indoors and you attempt this, you will burn down your house. This is very dangerous and should never be done at home.

Step 3: Scrape away the soot and gently wash. Similar to panning for gold, the soot will leave behind the diamonds created.
