Early in 1995 we were on a roll with new product development and began looking into other areas for research and possible products.  Our good friend and amazing Physics student Jamie Portsmouth was thinking of coming to Boston from England over the summer and was looking for something to keep him in beer over the summer.  Synthetic diamonds of gem quality were just appearing and there was considerable worry over them in the gem world.  Putting two and seven together we came up with a potential project of a new diamond tester which would differentiate natural from synthetic stones.  It makes for some interesting reading, even if we never turned it into a product.
