Without too much details, the idea of the diamonds is that they can be used in a solid state masor and that they would have some crazy high oscillation. Looking at the movie, high enough that they can emit light in the visible spectrum while not needing coolant. This would be groundbreaking in especially long distance/low power communications such as satellites.

I saw this in the theater when i was 16. I remember liking it. I wont revisit it.

They really missed the opportunity to have a cool action jump scene where Amy jumps from the plain in a cool action pose and lands in a cool pose. They could have built her up as this secretly very capable badass gorilla but didn't.

So this is the first episode of this podcast I listened to and while it's definately fun, I have to point out two errors within the first 5 minutes of the discussion: -Congo isn't over 2 hours long, it's about an hour & forty. -It's JOE Don Baker, not John.
