Star Trek stone sold
William Shatner has sold a kidney stone he ejected in October 2005 to the Golden Palace casino for $25K. The money will be donated to the Habitat for Humanity charity, which will be enough to build 1/2 a house for a homeless tsunami or hurricane victim.
His years as Captain Kirk showed as his superior negotiating skills enabled him to get $10K more from the casino than was first offered. Unfortunately, his years of conversation with Mr Spock didn't educate him - he claimed that "If you subjected it to extreme heat, it might turn out to be a diamond." If he really believed that he should have stuck in the oven and turned up the gas to 1000 C. He could then have sold the toasted kidney stone and built a whole village with it.
If he had listened to Spock, he might have learnt that diamond is a form of pure carbon and forms naturally when there is both high temperature and high pressure (at least 50x atmospheric pressure). Kidney stones are crystals comprised of one of the following: calcium phosphate, calcium oxalate, or magnesium ammonium phosphate,
You can see photos of the stone and listen to Shatner talking about it on the Live with Regis and Kelly TV programme.
After Shatner's stone sale, I look forward to seeing, on sale, celebrity toilet liquid & solid wastes nasal products & gametes.
