You forgot to mention the influence of the Borg and their method of extracting diamonds from coal. They have sped up the natural creation of diamonds & have determined that the Smeaton dump will be the first area on the third planet from the sun which will utilize this radical method. Of course, all humans within a 600 mile radius of the dump will become ASSimilated but that can't be a bad thing, eh? I mean, after all, those in STERLING's CLASSROOM are already ASSimilated, aren't they? The first step to achieving this goal will be the attempt to call for a Canadian election this Thursday. All we now is Queen E to show up & the triangle will be complete.
