Stan Jones' FAQ: Here's my standard response. I think it answers most of your questions. Don't stop what you're doing. Colloidal silver has been so completely researched that we know it is very safe. Many people don't see any difference in my skin. This news blast started because a reporter who saw me in a debate in Great Falls, Montana interviewed me and published a story with a doctored photo (made my face decidedly blue). The associated press picked the story up and put it all on the Internet. To answer your questions: 1) I use a generator with three nine-volt batteries connected in series (27 volts D.C.); 2) I started taking colloidal silver in Seattle where the tap water is generally free from minerals. I added a few drops of salt water to improve the conductivity. When I moved to Montana 1998, I continued to use tap water but here it is full of minerals. I never had it tested. 3) I made my solution in an eight ounce paper cup, conducting the current for one hour. I then added one half of this solution to two gallons of drinking water that I kept in my refrigerator. I have no idea what the PPM of this solution was. 4) I drank my water over the entire day , but mostly in the evening after work. I have no idea how much I drank during any day. 5) I never filtered the solution. 6) People began to tell me my complexion was getting pale or green or blue. I never noticed the difference in my mirror every day. I did notice that under my finger nails was turning blue -- like a lack of oxygen. That's probably the first sign. No other part of my body shows any indications. I hope this is helpful. I know that I am an unusual case -- only the second or third case to be reported.

CSCS production - water uncertainty
I have only recently started to study CS production, and I am uncertain what to think about the various waters I am testing. I know what I see, but not what to conclude from it. I would be grateful if one or some of the experts here could take a look at my parameters! Before I started buying things, I studied CS theory, devices etc. on the internet. I spent about a week fulltime, simply reading everything which Google would give me. I also bought an e-book with a lot of interesting background data. After that, I created my setup. Please bear with my European units, I hope you can translate them to US units! I use not the ~ 250 ml which would be 8 ounces of water, but 600 ml of water, because here I have lots of perfect and free glass bottles and I can keep a constant setup without having to frequently rethink processing times. My silver is a 999 fine silver rod, 3 mm diameter, especially produced for me at our national agency for precious metals (Oegussa). I use four 9 V rechargeable batteries which should give me 36 V, but the actual output is more like 32 - 33 V. I have a meter built in with a scale from 0 to 100 mA, and for water testing I use a second one, a multi-meter which has a setting with a 0 - 0.5 mA scale. Instead of using the wildly varying production time settings given in the literature, I stop the process at a certain current mark, which is 7 mA. I got that from a URL which I have recently seen on this list, saying that about 1 mA per cm2 of wet electrode (I assume one electrode, not both) are the upper limit. I have 7 cm of wet electrode; at 3 mm diameter they have roughly 1 cm2 surface per cm of length. The second meter with the 0.5 mA scale gives me a clue about the water conductivity at the start of the process (I have no other way to evaluate the water quality). I had been warned by the literature that what says distilled water on the label is most probably not actually distilled, but created by some kind of ion exchange machinery. So while I was testing various distilled waters, I also ordered a Waterwise 4000 water distiller (that decision came after I found out that my best available water, Aqua bidest from the pharmacy which is even OKed for intravenous solutions, would cost me 3,71 a liter...!) Here is why I am confused and uncertain what to think: The water with the highest conductivity seems to give me the best CS, at least if I judge from the literature I have studied. I have only the ampere-meter to judge conductivity. The following waters have been tested. I give you their names with the mA I read at process start (the water has room temperature): METRO (a supermarket) water (don't use for medical purposes) 0.30 mA BIPA (another supermarket) water 0.32 mA PURIFIED WATER (locally made in our pharmacy) 0.35 mA AQUA BIDEST (sterile in infusion bottles) 0.16 mA WATERWISE 1 (self-distilled, once) 4 mA WATERWISE 2 (self-distilled, twice) 0,48 mA (just out of curiosity I also tested tap water conductivity: 50 mA !!! ) I tested METRO, BIPA, PURIFIED WATER and AQUA BIDEST while my Waterwise distiller was in the mail. I seemed to get reasonable CS out of all these waters. It had a golden color and the taste was about the same I tasted in a bottle of CS which I had bought at 40,- for 100 ml at my naturopath's practice. BUT I never saw any golden silver cloud hover between the electrodes. Instead, I got a feathery blackish buildup on the negative electrode, looking like a christmas tree, and a dark brown cover on the positive electrode. In some waters, the stuff would not attach itself to the negative electrode but first travel to it and then sink to the bottom. After settling for two or three days, the remaining fluid would be golden and clear and show me a faint tindall effect. When my distiller arrived, I went to work with great enthusiasm, thinking that now I had the real thing. Great was also my disappointment when I saw that with 4 mA at process start, my water obviously was not of the quality I needed. I reached my 7 mA already after 15 minutes (normally about 1 hour 20 minutes), didn't wait any longer and threw that batch away. I decided to double-distill. Now I had 0.48 mA at process start. And oh wonder, for the first time ever I saw the famous silver cloud build up between the electrodes. The negative electrode remained absolutely clean, from the positive electrode I saw a fine dark brown dust sink down to the bottom. That batch reached 7 mA at 1 hour 10 minutes. The flashlight still showed me the silver cloud hovering in the water when I put it up on the shelf for settling. That was in the evening; in the morning the liquid was crystal clear (no golden color) with only a little brown dust at the bottle bottom. Now I am confused what to think. The WATERWISE 2 process looked cleanest, but it had the highest starting conductivity of all the waters I tested. Do I have silver salts in it now? And what happened with the

RE: CSBritish Columbia on silver toxicity guidelines
Hi Dean, It's true that silver chloride etc. are less effective against pathogens, at least in the test tube, but whether the it is 300 times less effective cannot really be taken from this article. What they are reporting is the reaction of silver ions with the gills (I assume) of flathead minnows, which can result in the death of these fish. The availability of silver ions systemically in mammals, when introduced as silver salts or proteins, depends primarily on redox reactions between these and the attractive sites on the pathogen. In other words, how strongly the silver is bound to protein or as a salt vs. the pulling power of the (mainly) sulfhydryl groups upon bacterial cell walls. As thiosulphate is one of the reagents used to complex silver for uv/vis spectrographic concentration assays, it is not surprising that it has a very powerful bond and is 17,500 times less toxic than free silver ions, but it looks like silver will give up chloride in favour of sulphide and so may be available as a anti-bacterial. I guess that is somewhat obvious, considering that cs made with salt reportedly has positive results.

There's a really interesting paragraph near the bottom of the page. It reads: The effect of speciation on the acute and chronic toxicity of silver was compared using the fathead minnow as the test organism. Silver sulfide, silver thiosulfate and silver chloride were compared to the silver ion, added as silver nitrate. The tests were flow-through in soft water at 25 degrees C. Silver chloride was found to be 300 times less toxic, silver sulfide was 15,000 times less toxic, and silver thiosulfate was 17,500 times less toxic than silver nitrate. This could be another reason not to add salt to distilled water to speed up the process, if it's 300 times less effective against microorganisms. -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

And if you see a silver cloud it means the process is using too much current. Instead, I got a feathery blackish buildup on the negative electrode, looking like a christmas tree, and a dark brown cover on the positive electrode. In some waters, the stuff would not attach itself to the negative electrode but first travel to it and then sink to the bottom. The black is oxidized silver, and a feathery buildup (as opposed to an even black coating) implies a slightly high current at times. The brown cover is silver surrounding microscopic hydrogen bubbles. Neither is bad for you. After settling for two or three days, the remaining fluid would be golden and clear and show me a faint tindall effect. The golden color says the particles are probably larger than the best CS generators produce. But it's still quite good CS -- just not the best. :) You can produce better CS by putting a 4 position switch between the batteries and the electrodes so you can switch the voltage from 32 volts to 24 volts when the current reaches 5 mA, and then switch to 16 volts when it again reaches 5 mA, and then switch to 8 volts until done. It will take longer to make the CS, but the particles will be finer. When my distiller arrived, I went to work with great enthusiasm, thinking that now I had the real thing. You do have the real thing. But it's not the best you can do with your equipment. Great was also my disappointment when I saw that with 4 mA at process start, my water obviously was not of the quality I needed.

Do I have silver salts in it now? And what happened with the other batches? With the length of time you're taking to process, you might want to add a stirring mechanism to your generator. The easiest/cheapest in most places is an air pump such as those used for small fish aquariums. A small stream of bubbles will gently move the water around to break up the silver cloud you see (which could give you a false reading on the meter, as the meter is measuring the path through the silver cloud). Other methods of stirring are also acceptable as long as the stirring is very slow and gentle and

Last year I had a similar idea of providing missionaries to poor countries with small CS making kits. To this end I contacted my pastor and he, in turn, connected me with someone high-up in a local missionary effort. I told him about CS and how easy it would be for a missionary to carry a small CS kit and be able to make CS on-the-spot to help people in poor areas of the world. He seemed to be interested and said he would get back to me. He never did so I assumed he just wrote me off as a kook. It was kind of frustrating but not unexpected. When talking about CS here at home, I sometimes get strange looks from people who think that if you don't take a pill that costs at least $5, then you can't get well.

Re: CSRe: the blue senator
There is literature that alludes to there being a race of advanced beings that had blue blood. Some of this literature indicates that these are the inhabitants of the 12th planet, and were giants, IE the giant that David slew. They or their descendants became the heads of the monarchies, and were called blue bloods. Supposedly they had copper instead of iron for the oxygen carrying capability, thus making them have blue blood instead of red blood. Supposedly if you mixed the bloods of the blues and the humans, it would lead to blood disorders like hemophilia. I do have my doubts as to this. I would find it surprising if a blood which is copper based humanoid could cross with a iron based one and end up with anything that would live. I have heard three theories as to why the monarchs were called blue bloods. 1. They had argyria from drinking wine from silver cups. 2. They had a blood disorder from inbreeding 3. They were decedents of the blue blooded aliens. Probably one of them is correct, but not sure which one.

Re: CSMarshall, How do you know CS cannot reach these areas ?
Interesting. So we have reports that it cannot pass the blood brain barrier, and that it can deposit into the brain. Unfortunately I can find NOTHING that gives any references that can be checked on this for either. Surely there is some research somewhere that will put this to rest.

Re: CSRe: the blue senator
To answer your questions: 1) I use a generator with three nine-volt batteries connected in series (27 volts D.C.); Here is the first problem. This method will allow the particles to get to large very quickly. A Constant Current CS generator will not allow the particles to get so large that they can't pass through the body. 2) I started taking colloidal silver in Seattle where the tap water is generally free from minerals. I added a few drops of salt water to improve the conductivity. When I moved to Montana 1998, I continued to use tap water but here it is full of minerals. I never had it tested. Tap water has all sorts of minerals in it that when mixed with the silver will produce all kinds of silver compounds. The salt will cause silver nitrate. Distilled water and NO SALT will give you a pure CS product with no compounds. My tap water in Plano, TX is 480 PPM of who knows what! 3) I made my solution in an eight ounce paper cup, conducting the current for one hour. I then added one half of this solution to two gallons of drinking water that I kept in my refrigerator. I have no idea what the PPM of this solution was. Refrain from mixing CS with anything unless you are trying to kill the germs in it, like perhaps purifying drinking water. Generally you should take CS straight without mixing with anything. All of this combined can cause Agyria. So, please seek the truth.

I've also been a fan of the Russian Scientific Community for quite some time, as well. http://www.altcancer.com/ecomed1.htm I thought those of you who are familiar with DC Zapper technology would get a kick ( literally? ) out of a family of products developed in the ( former ) Soviet Union... Edible zappers, at about 40.00 US a pill. Now, who's going to be the first to develop the first in-blood-stream zapper? Happy reading and kind regards, Jason
