    I've seen Tahitians that didn't pass the tooth test that were real Tahitians, but the reason was because they were coated. Most of the time though when someone tells me a pearl doesn't pass the tooth test that they've read about, it's because they're inexperienced.

    Thanks everyone. Think she might have worried herself a little too much. Gotta love PG. I'll try to make her come here and THANK YOU herself

    It's sort of a team effort now with the new system in place. I take the job first thing in the morning to delete all the attempted spam and notify Stop Forum Spam.com and often the Websites that are being link-dropped spammed by shady SEO companies. There are still about 3-5 per day (much less than the 100+ per day before the new system). Caitlin is still "boss of the board," and Kevin takes care of all the technical issues and updates to the backend.

    First thing in your morning - probably tea time for us British types!

    Probably. It's usually between 5 and 6 in the morning. I use an iPad so as not to wake anyone

    I hardly ever post as admin- that is Kevin or Jeremy, usually. When anyone posts as admin, it is official P-G word. I do admin work on the admin board, as needed, but it is less needed than ever.

    I have a little more to say on this subject, but will post it over on the feedback thread in Other stuff.

    What a godforesaken time of day.

    Are you one of those incredibly irritating people, like my Dad, who leap out of bed at Sparrow-fart full of the joy of living?

    Hi all the Pearl Expert,

    I'm the owner of the pearl. I would like to thank all of you here and especially Adeline who help me out on this. I didn't post myself because i'm not a member of PG then. Just registered today.
    Thank you all

    I have two ladies who are at the moment posting me a necklace and the other a bracelet to be restrung and a first time string up. They did not buy the pearls from me but I it is hard to turn away someone in need of a little help.

    In any case one has bought a cheap bracelet from me and the other might become a customer in the future. Admittedly it is easy for me to say as Barry is my pearl threader and knotter.
