I'll have to make sure that I do an ALMOST first-class job... since the only way to get my hands on Bill Hanneman's Guide to Affordable Gemology (until the third edition) is to place second, heh...
Perhaps I'll do a submission on the prehistoric archaeology related to the uses of different gem materials/minerals? Or maybe just beg a copy of the book of someone and write without any ulterior motive
