- smacktoward 12y agoGiven the human misery that has always come hand in hand with diamond mining (see http://www.nbcnews.com/id/15842524/ns/world_news/t/diamonds-journey-grim-reality-tarnishes-glitter/ http://www.nbcnews.com/id/15842524/ns/world_news/t/diamonds-..., for instance), yeah, that one seems like a tragic waste. All that suffering, just so people far away can have something shiny.
