Question - are the acronyms the same in french? Sereb and dma specifically. They were probably not called the Precious stones in french do you know the actual french term they used? I will ask my wife if she will take a peek. Technical lingo is usually the problem so this should not be too bad. She is french with her degree in english and was working on a masters in translation - unfortunately it doesnt pay well... :( Chris
