I Hate Peridot! 

You guessed it, I'm an August Baby, and I got stuck with Apple Green, when I'd just as soon have, hmmm, Blue Zircon -- matches my baby blues...

Anyway, the point is, I won't buy Peridot unless it's killer Peridot.  I don't buy the stuff that has brown tinges to it, and I don't buy the stuff that looks all yellowy.  (I wonder if I can use yellowy in a scrabble game?  I'm sure somebody will point it out if I'm wrong! :-)

So, it'd better be a good solid green, or I don't carry it.  'Nuff said.
