Hey, that sounds cool. :) Immagine haveing a Diamond Shell Coating for
your Windows and the outer body of your car! Immagine haveing it Tinted
so that you will NEVER NEED TO REPAINT!! :) I think that sounds really
awesome. Or how about Diamond Armor for police and military personel. :)
Or how about Diamond Coated Bullets, or even Diamond Bullets?! :)
I can think of LOTS of uses for damonds that aren't being implemented
right now because of Debeers' astronomicaly high prices!!
Yeah, immagine getting shot to death with one of the prettiest, sparkley
diamonds you've ever seen. :)
