cflutist Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,370 Last Post: 7/20/2006 Member Since: 7/12/2004	Well if websailor is going to ask about carat weight, I would like to take a poll of your current e-ring center stone color. Would also be interesting to know "why" you chose the color grade that you did. Poll: Question: What is the color of your current e-ring center stone? Answers: % Votes D 7% 22 E 13% 42 F 16% 50 G 18% 58 H 19% 59 I 14% 44 J 7% 23 K 2% 5 L - Z 2% 5 Fancy Colored Diamond 1% 3 Colored Stone (e.g. Ruby, Sapphire etc) 2% 5 Total Votes: 316

Nothing wrong with asking the question again to see what has changed.

Kamuelamom Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,808 Last Post: 10/20/2006 Member Since: 4/18/2003	FWIW, when I first came to the forums I didn't even know how to search through the archives. I think that posting "repeat" topics in a forum is just nature of the beast. I feel that sometimes it's good to have fresh threads on previously discussed topics. Eventually they somehow get linked together anyway.

Things have been rather cuckoo lately!! reena & cflutist, I live on the Big Island. We have volcanoes, beaches and snow all in one location here. It's the only island you can be skiing or snowboarding the slopes of Mauna Kea in the morning (during season of course), then sipping a margarita on the beach later the same day. If you are really ambitious you can even hike to the closest lava flow too. cflutist, I love Wahiawa, or did when I lived on Oahu many years ago. I didn't care for the city and sunday rides to Wahiawa always reminded me of home on the Big Island where I grew up. I think it's really changed now, as has everywhere, including here.

cflutist Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,370 Last Post: 7/20/2006 Member Since: 7/12/2004	KM, websailor and I actually visited the Big Island on our honeymoon. We stayed at the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel. It was beautiful there along with the island. We drove all the way around the island (long day) and hiked out on the lava flows in Volcanoes National Park. It was amazing to see how the lava flows just wiped out roads along its path. I know, we're off topic ... hopefully the PS police won't get us. Back to the topic, so far the "G"s are outpacing the "H"s. I thought I read somewhere that H-SI1 was the average sweetspot?

Lions, Tigers & Bears Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,107 Last Post: 9/12/2005 Member Since: 10/18/2003	I had heard that too...In fact, my first ering upgrade was an H, SI1, and I think a couple of people posted that was the sweetspot for a colorless, clear stone at a great value. _____________________________________________ Don't breed or buy when homeless pets continue to die.

Kamuelamom Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,808 Last Post: 10/20/2006 Member Since: 4/18/2003	cflutist, OT happens. The Mauna Lani is less than 30 minutes from my home, and a very beautiful resort. I worked at the Hilton Waikoloa Village years ago when I only had one child. The whole coast is being developed now. Pretty scary actually.

Kamuelamom Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,808 Last Post: 10/20/2006 Member Since: 4/18/2003	I'd love to own a warm colored stone someday. I'd go as far as a well cut M colored stone, especially if it were in the SI1-I1 (Patty's caliber of I1, of course) range. Pendant or earrings? RHR in antique setting? Hmmmmmm.........

jenwill Ideal Rock Total Posts: 735 Last Post: 2/19/2006 Member Since: 6/7/2004	I added my D...even though it is hidden in a safe waiting for the proposal. I would also be interested to see how many people have what levels of fluorescence...since mine has medium blue, but I know that many people steer clear of fluoro. There are also those of us who deliberately chose a stone becaseu it had noticeable fluoro.
