carbon-14, we all have it in ourselves already. if it isn't emitting any additional radiation as claimed it would be a good thing. the question then is what the price is like. a few $ each, perfect, beyond that then it becomes a specialty item and limits the market. so... we'll see what happens with this one.

fun with carbon dating and carbon-14 info just for grins:

They mentioned man made diamonds. Basically cubic zirconia, if you remember that rage.

those are not the same things. man-made diamonds are still diamonds in terms of hardness, cubic zirconium is a different crystal.
Ok so now in addition to her not finding out we need to add gamma radiation control. Its a first world problem.
