Well, atleast I know how much my life is worth. 50 diamonds. Good thing they've kept the price of diamonds artificially high.

So glad I'm not the only one who was horrified.

What an insidious piece of emotional blackmail. Let's create an industry from scratch based on the philosophy, "well, I guess it depends how much you loved them.", to grasp at a share of that life insurance policy.
Mind you, I think it's money better spent than a morbid headstone that gets pulled up in 75 years.

I stumbled across the site a while ago, and threw the detail into a short story I'm just now finishing. I doubt anyone will believe it's real.

There was just an article in Wired about creating diamonds, and it sounds like there are only two companies who have developed the capability to do so. Therefore, the possibility of them actually giving you a diamond created from a loved-one's ashes seems very unlikely.

The site looks like something out of Vanilla Sky.
