You are talking about the Mohr scale . I like the notion that Clark's nails and teeth are harder than diamond. laugh But then can be the same hardness and still have one cut the other. The only thing that can cut a diamond is another diamond.

Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
