I didn't mean to suggest that anything you said was incorrect, I was just supplementing it.

Charlton Heston?

Charlton Heston.

You can make elements from other elements. For example, it's pretty easy to make Gold out of Platinum (It's only taking one neutron away).

Shame Platinum is more valuable than gold.

jhocking:
The value is in the neutron.

there was a similar story recently about Sony's Playstation components using some kind of pretty rare metal, and how the demand for more Playstations drove up the price for that metal and the poor countries would use kids and slaves to mine for it.

i dont know how much of it is exaggerated but it still sounds pretty bad  (i say this as i play my ps3)
