Tammy,

I received one response from an Orchid member regarding moissanite, and it seems to be information of a substantive nature. Given the copyrright protection due to open forums, I'm not sure that openly re-posting his information would be appropriate in this situation. I'd be happy to forward his response to you. Contact me at my email address if you would like to read his response.

Happy New Year!
Miachelle

Miachelle - Yes, please sent that to me when you get a chance at tammy@creative-weblogging.com -

Jack - Actually, I had a lot more informtion in this original post, but some how it got cut off after the last two pictues I included. I was thinking of writing a third, just to at least include the information that got sucked up into cyberspace. However, now that I see the Barbers are still trashing me, honetly, I'm kind of sick of the whole topic. Get over it already, which is what I plan to do. I don't care that they lost or did not lose money investing in a questionable product, but I don't feel that's reason enough to publically attack me.

There is a big difference between an attack and criticism. Perhaps if you did better research and support your arguments with facts you would not have opened yourself to such a critique.

Ms. Powley you knew about Moissanite and you misrepresented your lack of knowledge to your readers. Below is your byline about Sarah Ferguson Moissanite line that you wrote about in January of 2006.

I guess a sucker is born every minute. Diamond Nexus Labs peddles nothing more than cheap, $5 CZ stones. They go to great lengths to present their stones as 'synthetic diamonds' or 'man-made diamonds' but then their website says absolutely nothing about the actual composition of their stones. If you call and press them enough, they will admit that they are in fact cubic zirconia. Here are a few links to forums where people discuss their displeasure with this deceptive company: http://forums.ebay.com/db1/thread.jspa?threadID=2000285033&tstart=0&mo

For all of the trash talking concerning Moissanite, you can purchase a 1 carat Moissanite solitaire on the internet for around $500 and probably sell it on ebay for around $400. If you buy one of these cheap cz rings, you will be lucky to get $50. Lesson to be learned: do your homework before buying diamond simulants.

Allen Iverson broke out his newest signature shoe, the Reebok Answer XII, during the first game between the Buy Reebok Answer XII Invictus Shoes in November 2008.
The Reebok Answer XII Invictus On Sale basketball shoe features a leather upper with internal mock bootie construction that provides maximum comfort.
The Nike zoom BB IIreceived its design cues from Japanese-born Reebok designer Nike Zoom BB II Basketball Shoes, who also designed the Answer X. Both Winfield and Kanata have been trading off between the past three Buy Cheap Nike Zoom BB II Men's Basketball shoes to allow for a longer design window and more attention to the development process. It could be argued that Iverson’s series lost its gusto during the VI to IX era. Luckily, for Iverson and his fans, the line has been in good hands the past three years.
The mid panel is also generously perforated for greater breathability and the Nike Shox Vc IV Men's Basketball Shoe Black suede toe sets off a nice balance to the simple yet sharp overall look.? The outsole features a sticky rubber wavy herringbone traction pattern and cushioning comes via DMX Ride.
