Squeeeeeeeeeee!
Studies suggest that under high enough pressures methane can form into diamond.
Although such conditions do not occur on Earth, the theory has been tested under artificial conditions and found to be true.
If this occurs on Neptune and Uranus, which have strong pressures and large amounts of free methane, then it would cause diamonds to rain down through the atmosphere towards their cores.
This would also account for unusual heat signatures emitted by these planets.

You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it.

You say you love wind, but when its comes you close your window.
So that's why I'm scared, when you say you love me.
