Cut a bunch of redundancy and blatant hype. Wikipedia is not an advertising medium. Vsmith 13:49, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Wow. I'm gone for a few month from the entry I originally wrote and it's gone through some massive changes. Comes to show how Wiki truly works: both good and bad. Some unknowns add metaphisical crap, others add commercial links, and so forth. The only sad thing left to say is that one works hard doing the research to write an original Wiki article with all the details, only to have some wannabe editor cut it down to the bones. Oh well. Such is life. --The Singularity 05:43, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

I take the 'wannabe editor' back. Vsmith claims to be a geologist and has done some improvements to the article. Unfortunately he has also put in some errors and deleted some very useful information. Typical high school teacher ;-) Other than that, okay job keeping it clean. --The Singularity 05:58, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This article needs a cleanup.

I don't like this article one bit, especially the part about the discovery/origins of Larimar. It reads like an advertisement. Furthermore it seems to be completely uncited. Drnathanfurious 06:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
