Check out the Adamas Speaks Leaflet on the Ovation Tribute website:

http://www.ovationtribute.com/Catalogues/Adamas_Speaks_Leaflet/Adam...

It says on the bottom of page 6 "...Adamas, which is a Latin word for diamond in its native form, carbon."

at least mine was the definition CHK told us all so I'm going with that.

When we were working on the Academy which was a step below the Applesauce we wanted to call it the Clap.

Unfortunately it got voted down.
