do you cleanse your crystals/stones with selenite...?
or another method? what are your views on cleansing crystals/stones?
I take my stones and crystals in hand. In how they feel and their warmth I'll hand rub them in either spring or salted water. If a stone has been used by a child as a crayon coloring object I'll use spring water and some fine sand. I always place crystal and stones in the sun for drying.

Considered God's hidden treasure, it is an cave filled with Tourmaline, Aquamarine, Topaz and Quartz crystals, unspoilt in total wilderness, situated near Swakopmund Namibia. Should I destroy the natural surrounding by mining or preserve? This may be the largest find in the world. Similar finds estimated 570M years old. Can be viewed, pic's available. Can $ value be attatched to such a find?
If it brings value to the people that mine it Yes.
For your information small scale gem mining or small gold mining does more for the people in the surrounding area then it does the do-gooder ecowhacks that want to stop it.
Tourmaline fetches good money, as does aquamarine, topaz, diamonds and opals.
I am a recreational prospector, I spend weekends and summers looking for treasure. Without mineral exploration you would not have a computer, (which might be a good thing). Dolts like you have no clue as you've likely not put in a hard days work in your life. You come out of liberal arts college taught by socialist professors and see mining as a blight. When without mining or farming the world would be a much different place.
Hell yes mine it.. If you can stake a claim on it have the back to work the claim why the hell not??
can tourmaline use to charge and cleanse other crystal like how a clear quartz can cleanse and charge other crystal?
No. The whole concept of crystals having mystic and curative powers is total rubbish believed only by woolly thinking individuals who have been infected by this "New Age" pseudo-scientific clap trap and encouraged by unscrupulous traders selling minerals at inflated prices. I have spent the last half a century surrounded by every gem and mineral you can think of and many more that you have never even heard of and if they had any magical effect at all I should be a mini superman by now - the reality is I am slightly overweight, going grey and need glasses to type this answer. Have an interest in minerals for their natural beauty and scientific complexity and not for a lot of utterly unproven fairy stories.
Clear Quartz Crystals & The Color Green - Cassendre Xavier - July 27, 2010
A company called 'Crystal Windows Ltd' fitted my double glazing but am I covered by law if something is wrong?
they fitted the whole house but as we were busy with the rest of the re-build we didnt notice the small faults. To date we have 4 faults with the fit (e.g. gaps between the frames that let in air and water, loose frames). It has been 3 months and they still havent come around to fix the problem after countless number of calls and visits to the factory to talk to them.
Another thing is that they retained the receipt for the job as they had to make an ammendment - will this be a problem if I want to go to court? i have already contacted FENSA and they were no help as they only deal with building regs.
Any advice would be most welcome!
Thanks in advance

p.s. they are in Birmingham, Winson Green
(fyi)
Thanks Old Know All :]
Write to their head office (yes on paper) setting out all that's happened and what you expect them to do about it. Give them a time limit and say that if they have not carried out the work to your satisfaction by then, you will arrange for another glazing contractor to put it right and sue them for the cost. Then be prepared to carry out your threat.
The biggest problem with this approach is that double glazing companies have a tendency to phoenix themselves. They trade for a few years paying big commissions to their salesmen and big salaries to their owners until they become insolvent. Then they liquidate the company - along with all its debts and contractual liabilities - and start up under a slightly different name. If your windows were fitted by Crystal Windows 2007 Limited and you're now dealing with Crystal Windows 2010 Limited, you can only sue the receiver of the old company and you won't get a penny.
