[3afan2K3]

Someone post a question

[turbostud]

What year did Harley Davidson merge with American Machine Foundry(AMF)?

[Sans Couth]

it was around 1976

[Sans Couth]

But then they bought it back in the late 80's if I recall.

[turbostud]

kinda close

[Sans Couth]

ok how about 1972?

[turbostud]

closer they bought it back in 81

[sinton66]

I think it was around 1979.

[SintonFan]

LOL
I just got back. Can I ask the next question???:D

[turbostud]

yes

[SintonFan]

What birthstone is the youngest discovered?

[turbostud]

[3afan2K3]

[Sans Couth]

I am gonna guess Peridot in August.

But that's not it.

[turbostud]

amethyst

[Sans Couth]

OK,

How about Opal?

[Sans Couth]

Topaz?

[turbostud]

emerald

[SintonFan]

At least that's a birthstone...LOL
But still wrong...

[SintonFan]

wrong, wrong...
Who gonna get to the twelvth first????:D

[Sans Couth]

Well my guess is it is one of the new ones that has replaced the traditional stone then. How about December'z Blue Zircon?

[turbostud]

sapphire

[turbostud]

ruby

[SintonFan]

It is one of the traditional stones.

[turbostud]

garnet

[SintonFan]

no, no, no, no

[Sans Couth]

Well January's Garnet. Has some newly discovered varieties. But that does not make it the youngest in my opinion.

[turbostud]

Tanzanite jewelry is the youngest of gemstone jewelry. The beautiful blue stone was discovered in 1967 in Tanzania, the only place in the world where tanzanite is found. Tanzanite is a blue zoisite that was re-named tanzanite by Tiffany & Co.


This must be a trick question. I went and looked and this is what I found.

[Sans Couth]

Well maybe you are thinking of Alexandrite for June. But us old fogies know that the pearl is June's.

[Sans Couth]

Turbo,

Tanzanite is not a birthstone.

[SintonFan]

OK, of the birthstones discovered this is the most recent discovered...

[turbostud]

oh ok

[Sans Couth]

Sapphire?

[Sans Couth]

No wait it couldn't be sapphire, because a Ruby is nothing more than a Red Sapphire. How about emerald.

[turbostud]

white topaz

[turbostud]

citrine

[SintonFan]

You are correct! Alexandrite was discovered in 1830 on the birthday of Alexander II of Russia.
.
You turn...

[SintonFan]

Sorry about the wait guys, my brother called and talked to him for a few minutes and didn't see the earlier response. Hehe, turbostud lived up to his namesake. You came up with quick responses...:eek:
