I drove for 50 minutes to get to her in Walnut Creek from my home in San Francisco, and spent two and a half hours watching her navigate three diamond rings and a billion cool techie tools. But the end result is that I'm appraised and happy to report that my new asscher is up to snuff! I must say it was hilarious to watch her hunched over the microscope for nearly 15 minutes, and when I finally asked her what she had been doing for so long, she grumbled, "Looking for the pinpoints". After all of that time, she found only one of the two, at 50x magnification, and finally gave up on the second. That's a good little VVS2! I got to play with an idealscope and ASET and gaze at my ring. I thumbed rappaport issues and trade magazines and watched her work, peppering her with questions when I could think of them. Very cool. Anyway, I just wanted to let anyone on the west coast in need of a great appraiser to follow the path to Nancy Stacy. Hooray! *********************************** Nothing is worth more than this day. -Goethe
