You asked to see it ... here it is  This is the cab that I am sending Mark. It is a Brazilian Agate cab which has a very soft pastel "Iris" band in it. The colors of the rainbow come to life when you have a light source behind the stone (unfrosted light source). The "Iris" is caused in the same manner as a prism diffracts light into the individual colors of the color spectrum. Hopefully, the photos wil show the soft varying colors! I hope you like it ...    Well, what do you think ... will he like it? Yea, I think he will as well ;D I also just posted five new clues ... yes, 5 ... so hopefully we can get this tumbled out ... oops, there is another clue! Enjoy, John |

Hi everyone, I wish I was a better photographer ;D These photos are okay ... but they're a little out of focus, as the banding is a little better than it shows in my photos. I think Mark will enjoy it Now, go get the final answer ... the game is about over! John |

Hi Mark,
What do you mean ... earn it ?
You have made it available for us to get together every day and discuss, moan, cry, laugh, learn and wonder about this fascinating hobby of ours and yet ... you ask for nothing in return.
In my eye's ... you have earned it long ago.
You have touched so many lives (you have mine anyway) in so many different ways.
I thank you ... you have already earned much more than this cab ... you have earned my admiration, friendship and respect.
Sincerely,
John

If he wants to earn it - have him find a suitable name for it before you send it to him (just humour him ) Make his sweat it out!!! |
