CS>complicated explanations about cs

2005-03-29 Thread Betsy Coffey
although I enjoy much of what is posted here even if
it is technical(I am trying to learn from all of
this), I have to agree with Thom. As much as I
consider the technical discussion educational and I
welcome it, it would also be nice to have some simple
explanations about how cs works and which ones are
most effective. For some of us batteling serious
health problems, it is important to get some plain
facts. I am still confused about
EIS,meosilver,argentyn, and ASAP. These seem to be
mentioned lately and I would like opinions about
whether or not they are safe, and effective for
infection or yeast. I have read many of the posts
about them and feel more confused than ever.

Ed,
 
A Local homeopath here, syas that ALL calcium supplements contain some lead.  
Have you heard this?
 
I'd sure like to know, as I take cal/mag supplements.

There is nothing wrong with either brand. Both are exactly as they state on the

But. Robert Barefoot (Calcium factor) states that one can take mega-doses of 
Coral Calcium without possibility of calcium poisoning. Which I still believe 
is true. But not calcium derived from shell fish or  the more common calcium 
(carbonate  - chalk)  . That's when the gout struck. Stopped immediately and 3 
weeks later my gout was gone. Tried (COSTCO CALCIUM) again a few months latter 
and bang right to the big toe. Stopped (COSTCO CALCIUM) and relief.  Latter 
tried the TRC Coral calcium and no problems at higher doses.  So that made a 
believer out of me.  This was about 2-3 years back and Coral calcium was really 
popular and selling for a lot of money. About 10-$20 more than I was selling it 
at. Prices are very competitive now. I would suggest if you want to take 
calcium use a respected  Coral Calcium brand. Most are reasonably priced now.

  Hi Steve  - you make very good points, especially on  the absorption
  rate. I believe you are correct.

  I noticed a similar effect with the second Shingles infection. I was
  drinking 8 oz of 3 nines quality each day. It had no effect.

  When I first tried the 20ppm cs, I was not sure what to expect, so I
  didn't swallow it but spit it out. Then the blisters fell off.

  One ounce  is, of course, 1/8 of 8 ounces. So the  old  stuff should
  have worked. But it didn't.

  And the  20ppm had no effect on the mold toxins. I guarantee  you, I
  tried. But the 30-45uS definitely has a very significant effect.

  I have  been out of work due to mold related illness for  years  - I
  think since 1999. But am going to start looking for a job this week.

  To me it's clear. When it comes to ionic cs, more is better.

Thanks,

Mike Monett

  Hi Trem, thanks much for the update. I really had no notion what the
  Tyndall would be - faint is good, especially in a dark room.  Do you
  happen to  have any info on the brew time and current? You  gave the
  volume previously as 1 gallon so that's all I need to do a Faraday.

  Your quality is by far the best I've seen. It is amazing the drop in
  uS is so minor. Thank you for doing the experiments. I made a couple
  of batches  using  18uS starting cs that came out  pretty  good, but
  they certainly don't match yours.

  I just  did a simple experiment by moving the electrodes  during the
  brew. This  reduces the cell conductance and  increases  the voltage
  briefly. You can make a crude map of the concentration  by moving
  the electrodes a small distance and watching the voltage.

  I don't  suppose  you  have ever thought of adding  a  drop  of food
  coloring to  see how fast it diffuses while  stirring?  Possibly you
  are able to get such high silver concentration by sweeping  the ions
  away from  the electrodes so they don't have a chance  to accumulate
  in the Nernst Diffusion layer.

  So the concentration between the electrodes is an  important factor,
  and reducing the ion density helps, as my double chamber experiments
  illustrate. But it's not the entire story.

  Heck - I don't even know the rest of this chapter:)

  Why does your cs not show huge drops in uS with time?

Best Wishes,

Mike Monett

CS>dose PPM, quantity & frequency

2005-03-29 Thread
Mike Monett & others,

It's interesting 20 us CS apparently didn't help with your mold problems,
but 40 us did.  What puzzles me is why double your 20 us dose wouldn't
accomplish exactly the same thing?

In other words, why shouldn't 2 ounces of 5 uS or PPM have exactly the same
effect as 1 ounce of 10 uS or PPM?  Does it have something to do with the
rate of absorption per fluid ounce, and if it isn't strong enough, the body
gets rid of it faster than it can accumulate to do some good?  Comments
anyone?

As a general rule, I think all CS List posters should specify PPM (or uS),
quantity and frequency of ingestion when they report the results produced.
E.g. I drank 8 ounces of 10 PPM CS 6 times a day for 3 weeks and it cured my
Lyme Disease, or whatever.  Just saying you used 10 PPM CS doesn't tell the
whole story.

 Trem's SG7 works much better. Let's try to figure why. I don't think

  > Marshall

  I am  amused  by the arguments produced  recently.  Silver  ions are
  converted to  silver  chloride  as soon as  they  encounter  salt or
  hydrochloric acid  in  the body. There is no  minimum  solubility as
  Marshall proposes. It all gets converted to silver chloride.

  We all  know  Stan Jones got Argyria from  drinking  large  doses of
  silver chloride. When exposed to light, a photon knocks  an electron
  free from the chlorine, and the silver ion grabs it. Both  atoms are
  now free to go their separate ways, but the silver gets stuck in the
  tissues and turns your skin blue. So silver chloride is  bad because
  it produces elemental silver particles in your body.

  But then  we  read  that   ionic   cs  will  not  give  you Argyria.
  Interesting. With all the cs we drink over the years, surely some of
  it must  have stuck somewhere and we are all turning blue.  But this
  contradiction is never resolved.

  The next thing we hear is Mesosilver is pure silver particles. Seems
  like we  just decided silver particles are bad since  they  give you
  Argyria. It  has  to  accumulate  over  time  -  the  EPA  and other
  organizations give maximum lifetime doses. But this contradiction is
  never resolved.

  Next we hear that Mesosilver is very effective in killing pathogens.
  It has to be true - the reports are publication quality.

  But the reports never tell us that the 20ppm Mesosilver has an ionic
  content of  3.9ppm. The reports also use a 75ppm version,  but there
  is no  information on the ionic content. There has to be some  - but
  we don't  know how much. So how do we know the  killing  results are
  not due  to  the ion content? The times  listed  are  certainly long
  enough for  silver  ions  to diffuse anywhere  and  slowly  kill the
  pathogen.

  The 75ppm product is not available commercially. Perhaps  the reason
  is it  definitely  would  produce  Argyria.  Is  it  fair  to  use a
  non-available product to demonstrate the efficiency of  the standard
  one? I don't think so.

  Next we hear that silver ions were never found in the blood, but the
  ICP/AES did find silver in the blood serum. Interesting.

  If you hold 1 oz of 20pm cs in your mouth for ten minutes, then spit
  it out, the maximum possible concentration you can get in your blood
  is 118 parts per billion. Of course, you never get 100% absorption.

  The silver  content mentioned in one of Frank's reports  ranges from
  28ppb to  a  bit over 100ppb. This corresponds well  with  the value
  calculated above.

  But we are supposed to believe the reason this could not be detected
  with the  Ion  Selective Voltmeter is because  it  all  converted to
  silver chloride,  which is bad or doesn't matter depending  on which
  page you are on.

  Perhaps the  reason  the  ion was not detected is  the  probe  has a
  minimum detection  level.  One commercially  available  probe  has a
  limit of  50 parts per billion - the same range as we are  trying to
  measure.

  The probe  is  also  affected by other  ions,  such  as  sodium. The
  selectivity coefficients differ for each probe and  ion combination.
  So it  is  possible the interference  from  sodium  would completely
  overwhelm the  response from the small amount of silver ions,  so it
  could not be detected.

  The owner  of  the instrument knows the  performance  data.  I asked
  Frank for these parameters, but have not seen a response:

http://escribe.com/health/thesilverlist/m78996.html

  So it's  possible the attempt to measure the ion content  was futile
  in the first place. We are not given the information needed to tell.

  The next amazing thing we learn is the key to everything is particle
  surface area. There is no explanation - we just

 Yes, I would agree that has been my experience, if you mean putting 
straight CS on a bruise. Now, putting on a mix of DSMO and CS works a 
treat, but I think that is mainly the DMSO, not the silver, the silver 
effects being helpful but secondary.


 We use DMSO diluted to various strengths for various purposes, and 
since I have a lot of CS and can make all I want, I see no harm and a 
lot of possible benefit to using only CS to dilute it with. The DMSO 
does the work of preventing the bruise and/or breaking up bruises very 
fast, and the CS could certainly be acting to help kill off any bacteria 
that might take advantage. And it does have help spped healing on its 
own, too. But it can't get to where the tissue damage is by itself, 
because alone it can't get through the intact skin surface, even with a 
surface wound CS does not penetrate tissues very deeply.  (my opinion, 
from my own experience)

Mike was wondering where fresh coconuts could be obtained in his area.

equipped grocery stores to now have all kinds of imported exotic

If he were truly in a location that didn't have them, then using the

In that case I see nothing wrong with the protocol.  I don't understand how the
bacteria are removed from the "challenge" liquid without getting any of the CS

Yes, it is difficult to reconcile the differences between these results and
Frank's.  The only big difference I see is the protocol.  Could it be that
silver particles kill when the bacteria is multiplying, like many off the shelf
anitbiotics?  That would explain it, but I have never seen any indication that
CS only works on dividing bacteria, so I doubt that is the answer.

I am going to have to think about this a while and see if I can come up with a
valid hypothesis that is likely and can be tested.

CS>lyme mom

2005-03-29 Thread GMetropulo
I would like to know of anyone having success with the bob beck protocol   
with chronic lyme and mycoplasma? How is it used? What equipment is the best? I 
took Argentum 23 at 8 tsp./d   for 2 months with no herx and no improvement. I 
was told it was so much purer than making it. I have been part of many 
studies at high doses to no avail. My symptoms are complex but center in the 
infected scalp and neck muscle with edema, severe burning, severe constrictions 
and 
contractions, fibrosis in affected tissues of the scalp. I have to constanly 
stretch burning contracted scalp and neck to crack open adhesions to release 
fluid down the lymph. I have severe burning of the muscles from scalp, neck to 
my 
back and chest with irregular heartbeat and irrregular circulation I have 6 
children to raise that deserve more.I need to do somethiong that will get into 
the muscle tissue   and lymph of the scalp and neck. I was told argentum 23 
was the cadillac.I took the maximium but it didn't do anything. Thank you for 
any help you can offer.

  Chuck, thank you for your safety tips on high voltage. Yes,  TV sets
  and bedside lamps harbor high voltages. But you don't pour  water in
  them.

  I spent 8 years in the military working on high  power transmitters.
  They drummed into us constantly to never trust the interlocks. Don't
  even give high voltage a chance. It will kill you.

  I have  been  a  ham  since   1955,   and  have  built  my  share of
  transmitters. You gain a very healthy respect for high  voltage when
  you hit  the plate cap on a 6146, or grab a power  supply  using 6L6
  regulators where someone substituted metal tubes, and  the designers
  used pin  1  as  a tie point for 900V. Pin 1 on  a  6L6  is normally
  vacant, but the metal version connects it to the metal case.

  I fix microwave ovens for friends. You are right - it has interlocks
  that are supposed to blow the fuse if the interlocks fail. I  have a
  box full  of  microswitches taken from failed ovens.  You  would not
  believe how astonished you are when the safety systems fail  and the
  microwave turns on when you open the door. It will fry your eyes  in
  seconds.

  The thing  about being an engineer is you get to see a  much broader
  range of experiences. My decision to stay away from  microwave ovens
  for my personal brewing is based on that experience. What you  do is
  your choice. But please don't trust the interlocks.

  Buy more  silver  and use it to reduce the voltage  needed  to drive
  your brew.  This  will reduce the current  density  and  give better
  quality. Quality  in  my book is the highest  possible  ion content,
  with the  minimum  reduction as oxides are  produced  after  you are
  finished brewing.

  I now  make cs with concentration up to 48uS, but it decays  down to
  40us or less in a short time. I switched to using 18uS cs to seed my
  generator, and  now  get 34.8uS that is perfectly clear  and  has no
  decay at all.

  But in my book, the highest quality award goes to Trem  Williams. He
  showed how  his SG7 will make 45uS that is perfectly  clear  and has
  little or  no  decay.  My hat's off to him,  and  I  am  dropping my
  beautifully-conceived double chamber system and looking for a way to
  get vigorous stirring.

  My experience  with cs is the higher the ion content, the  better it
  works. When  I got Shingles, the plain 3 nines worked  well  to stop
  it.

  But it  came  back  a while later. I  got  painful  open  sores that
  wouldn't heal. The 3 nines stuff had no effect.

  I experimented and found going to "U" shaped electrodes and reducing
  the current density just about doubled the ion content. When I tried
  the first  brew,  I only took 1 oz, and spit  it  out  after several
  minutes. Three days later, the Shingles blisters fell off. They have
  not returned.

  As you  know, I have been suffering the effects of  mold  toxins for
  years. The 20us cs had no effect.

  I did  some  more experimenting and found a way  to  get  higher ion
  concentration. A description is in the archives.

  I took  my  first dose on March 4.  The  symptoms  gradually started
  disappearing, and now I am able to function like a human  being once
  more, instead  of  spending days in bed. I am  putting  the  list of
  doses and times at the end. You can see the PWT readings drop as the
  oxides form. The last batch has only two entries, but the reading is
  the same as when it was brewed. So it is possible to make high-ionic
  cs without having it decay, but Trems' SG7 system works much better.

CS>the tooth that MUSY be out

2005-03-29 Thread Leonardo van Goens

Greeting you, Company of Colloidal Silver!

Although new to this forum, I would like to share this interesting sample of 
the stubbornness that established medicine (in this case dentistry) is 
capable of.


See, I had this inflammation on my upper molar, the last in the row 
up-right. It got very painful, and I called my dentist: the receptionist got 
me an appointment.


When I got there the lady dentist met me in the corridor, and already 
uttered to my great astonishment: "We'll anaesthetize you, and then.." I 
interrupted: "Dear, we are not going to pull, are we?" (I was not even in 
the chair yet, she had not seen my mouth, she had not touched the molar, not 
taken any x ray, and yet, on word of the receptionist she was ready for 
extracting .. that was # 1).


So she protested "..but you are in pain!" "Yep, and I came for counsel, not 
for tooth-players." Stubbornly she kept badgering that there was no cure and 
that extraction was the only solution. More or less to my own astonishment I 
heard myself say: "One week, Doc. One week and there will be no more pain.”


Destiny had it that the left under tooth broke, and I needed (her) 
treatment. Meanwhile I had
home-treated the other molar by rinsing my nasal cavity with my own water, I 
had drank a mouthful of colloidal silver three times a day, and had pressed 
the inside of my right ring finger (point upper teeth, three seconds 
method), where it was very painful.


So I called the dentistÂ’s for treatment of the one left-under, and got the 
appointment. Treatment was (without anesthesia necessary) done in twenty 
minutes.


NOT A WORD (that was # 2) from this dentist about the right back upper molar 
.. which was by this time fully healed, gums and all. I never bothered 
telling her about the successful alternative treatment.


Then .. that same left down last molar got inflamed. I went to sweet dentist 
again. Same Old Story! No comments, at once ready to extract. Yet .. this 
time she did take an ex-ray, and showed me, muttering about her twenty 
yearsÂ’ experience, that there was indeed a good inflammation between the 
roots. A little black ball showed there.
So now I mentioned the fully healed upper right tooth. She commented: “Well, 
yeah .. I see .., but the flesh is still reddish and ill-looking.” It was 
NOT. The tissue was hard, the circulation was good (and even today it is), 
and I have been without any sensation of pain or irritation since. (that was 
# 3)

I shall not see this narrow-minded-ready-to-extract-mouth-smith again.

I repeated the treatment for the left-under tooth, but for the Urine Therapy 
(the lower teeth cannot be reached by rinsing with urine, as is possible for 
the upper teeth). I drank bits of Colloidal Silver, pressed the tooth-point 
on the inside of the left ring finger. Yeah! In ONE week the pain, the 
inflammation was no more. And I saw another dentist who even treated it, and 
put a new layer of composite on.


So yes, Colloidal Silver helped me in the healing of two teeth. And they are 
still in function.


We have a long way to go, and weÂ’ll have to show a lot of goodwill. But that 
there are other ways of healing ourselves in the most diverse manners, of 
the most diverse ailings, is a fact.


Love you all, Faith.

CS>introducing Luz and Faith

2005-03-29 Thread Leonardo van Goens

Faith and Vilma (Luz) introducing themselves to this very interesting forum.

Greeting you, Company of Colloidal Silver!

We are health-care workers. Luz luz...@terra.com.co is a natural healer, and 
IÂ’ll tellya, it is quite an experience to be married to a psychic of her 
caliber. She is surely working her way up to greater acknowledgement: From 
our tiny island she was invited to our sister island, 80 miles away, then to 
a destination some 1000 miles oversea, and now even to New York, to give 
acte de présence, and to do her work.
I teach, and have a language lab. Besides I played around with Reflexology 
for over fifteen years, then got serious, seeing the continuous stunning 
results those who depended upon us came up with.
So we got licensed. That was last December in Medellín (Colombia), and now 
the both of us are helping clients in need.


In our health-practice we combine Colloidal Silver with feet and hand 
reflexology, Palma Christi treatments (Castor or Risinus Oil .. on Edgar 
CayceÂ’s indications) and Urine Therapy; UT causing us many laughs for the 
barriers many have of their own water .. although it is So Healing!


In three years, when IÂ’ll be retired, weÂ’ll finish the creation of our 
Center and then weÂ’ll go fully professional.


I am not very “science” oriented. Yet, seeing all you-guys offer your 
knowledge as to this Precious Product called Colloidal Silver, I am very 
glad to be back, and to be able to share with and from you.


Only .. in three days I shall be operated on my right eye for cataracts 
(obscuring of the eye lenses) and then a week later on the other eye. This 
was the one thing I could not heal with Urine Therapy, although I was well 
on my way! These operations will take me off the computer for quite some 
time. When back, I shall simply repeat this introduction, and GO again.


Hope weÂ’ll all be fine,
Greeting you all in Friendship,
Faith and Vilma

Because that can give you argyria, and if I am right about the conversion of 
silver
salts to silver particles in the blood, produce a few ineffective huge 
particles of
silver instead of trillions of extremely small effective ones.  With EIS you 
get the
nucleation sites for plate out in the brew.

Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2005 18:36:59 +0200

Hello Mike D.

Thank you very much for your clear answers to my previous questions, about 
heating CS.


The generator I bought last week is made by Special Energy Products, and is 
called the Electrolyser (price around 180 euro). It produces one litre of 
CS per batch.

I have to leave the two silverelectrodes in the water for 35 minutes.
The instructions say that if the Electrolyser is used properly, the 
silverparts will be less dan 0,005 micron.
They advise to use distilled water and to clean the silver electrodes after 
about 15 min. with a soft cloth and when you are finished, after 35 minutes 
(and that's really necessary, I found!).

Their website is: www.specialenergy.nl
They sell all sorts of 'alternative' instruments and products, like for 
instance the Purple Plates by Nicola Tesla, which I use as well and which 
are lovely to wear around your neck.


Indeed, the debate amongst the CS experts was 'the far from my bed show' 
(to use a Dutch saying!), but that's also because English is not my 
mothertongue. But that's something I simply have to accept in this case, 
that I can't understand everything I read on this list. Perhaps in a later 
stage I will be able to understand what the experts were talking about. And 
I think you are right: the info in this list should be for CS users on all 
levels, also the experts should be able to exchange ideas between them, 
without having to explain every single detail to others. But I still think 
also that Einstein was right by saying, that if you really understand 
something, you should be able to explain it to a child. Nice example: the 
film "What the Bleep do We (K)Now?!" The producers were able to explain 
quantum fysics in a very clear, understandable way for everyone who is 
sincerely interested and even if you don't have a scientific background. I 
have seen it this weekend and found it very intesting, a great movie 
indeed!


But now my next beginners question, and I would be grateful if somebody 
would answer it:
How can you state what the quality is of the CS you made? I understand that 
the colour says a lot, and if I understand well, cristal clear, colourless, 
is best. Is that correct?
But how do I know if the CS is 'strong' enough? I didn't receive the bio 
tensor yet that I ordered, but surely there are other ways of stating the 
quality of your CS.

Re: CS>Time for closing arguments, perhaps?

2005-03-29 Thread Trem

Mike et al,

I contacted Stephen Quinto yesterday via email to ask him about the test 
since I was not sure what I was reading on his site.  Here is what he told 
me today


"There was NO media in the challenge.  I don't suppose anyone carefully read 
the propocol. The challenge was carried out in pure lab-quality water for a 
very short period, minutes.  The results were immediately plated out ON the 
media, not in it, so that if there were any survivors amongst the bacteria 
then they would have a nutrient to feed off and redevelop."


This seems to change everything once more doesn't it?   I had thought this 
was the question when I posted this a couple of days ago.


"Since I'm only an amateur at culture work (used to culture mushroom 
strains)

I fail to see why the test isn't valid.  It seems he is trying to show that
when Staph is mixed with dilute hydrochloric acid and further mixed with
dilute silver of colloidal and ionic content that one set of cultures had a
better kill rate.  I wasn't aware the test involved growing onto the plate.
I thought the plates were used only because they were a sterile medium that
would not inhibit growth and would not influence the kill rate.  What am I
missing here?

So, is the debate still an open one?  I think so.  Stephen also says he has 
done some other studies.  Here is what he said.


"We are currently doing a lot of 3rd party work, including comparative 
bacteriology, the results of which will blow everyone away anyway. The early 
results show Argentyn to be, on average, at least two logs superior to any 
of the competitive brands, including mesosilver. BTW, two logs means 100x! 
We're also doing third party TEM work at Georgia State, which will also 
confirm recent work we did at U of Miami. I think we'll publish the U of 
Miami Med School work now too."

Hi gang,

I wonder if the Ionic vs. Colloidal debate has had enough time now to
begin to reach some consensus?

Could maybe Trem, Marshall and/or Frank summarize what has been agreed
to, learned, proven, disproven, or marked for futher study as a result
of all this voluminous verbiage? 

It seems to have been a fruitful discussion, but we need to be
sensitive to the fact that newcomers are not going to be able to get
very much from such detailed information. If the topic continued much
longer we'd start to lose people from confusion and boredom.

Again, I'm not demanding a hard and fast cut-off, but am suggesting
that we may be ready for a summary?

Thank you folks,

## It happens after a good particle stream is running about in the water
and contacts an obstruction such as the bottom of the container for a
gooodly amount of time...probably only at over 10 PPM as under that , the
water isn't conductive enough, nor are concentration zones around and
between the electrodes in an "ion track" [My mis-use of a self coined term?
;-)] saturated enough to form or precipitate many particles of any kind.
 'Ion tracking' might be a real term...but I still made it up.

 What's weird is that, when using lots of current and allowing "ion tracks"
to form, golden particles cloud around one electrode, white ones around the
other..and nothing in between unless something gets in the way.
 If something does get in the way, you get metallic silver plate out AND
both colors of particle with a white spot and a black spot on either end.

 Reduce current and you only get the white ones. [This is my 'current' rule
of thumb when deciding how much current to use]

 My 'guess' is that the white is silver hydroxide forming and the golden,
some sort of silver oxide forming... both dissolving at the mid point and
staying dissolved till some saturation point is reached either locally or
thoughout.
 Then, metallic silver particulates?

 If current is low, I'm guessing that the oxides pretty much stay on the
electrode and don't form in the water...no golden particlescolorless
EIS at any PPM, unless some other contaminant starts playing the crystal
nucleus role at some other varying point.

Looping back around to the 'idea' of oxides playing a role in building
crystal lattice structures making larger particles [with color due to size
but not due to pigmentation from oxides] possible and susceptible to
breaking apart with the addition of hydrogen peroxide later on...as
hydrogen peroxide DOES discombobulate oxides on the black electrode and if
used as part of the electrolyte, forms huge shiny silver snowflakes that
eventually turn into black oxide balls...whereas and similar to...if an
oxide black electrode, once cleaned and shined up by H2O2 is 'left' in
H2O2, it turns black again.

 All that said, there may well be a few different acting forms of silver
oxide involved at different times, under different conditions, in different
places, doing different things.

 

 Whew!

 What things, when and how, goes too way far over my head to even guess at.
All I 'know' is,  it isn't at all simple...then ...it gets complicated
even 'before' using the stuff in 'another' myrid of manners and combinations.

Oh well, "plug and glug"  works OK.

 We don't know what 'matter' is either, but we can still bonk ourselves on
the head with it and believe it matters...taking an effect as proof that
there's something there while looking closer reveals that nothing is.
 Proving that nothing really can put a dent in nothing other???  LOL

The word paradox comes to mind.

   Sorry, I mis-quoted.
It's " Dogs excreted approximately 90% of an inhaled dose of metallic silver particles in the feces within 30 days of exposure." [Phalen and Morrow 1973]

risk.lsd.ornl.gov/tox/profiles/silver_f_V1.shtml 

Following intratracheal administration to beagle dogs, the absorption of metallic silver particles appears to be extensive. Phalen and Morrow (1973) estimated that up to 90% of silver (mean aerodynamic diameter = 0.5 µm) deposited in the lungs of dogs was absorbed into the systemic circulation 6 hours after exposure.

Six hours after intratracheal administration of metallic silver to dogs, 96.9, 2.4, and 0.35% of the initially deposited dose was detected in the lungs, liver, and blood, respectively. The remaining silver was detected in the gall bladder and bile, intestines, and stomach. After 225 days, the distribution in tissue type was similar, with most of the silver found in the liver (Phalen and Morrow, 1976).

Note: distribution..not amount, as 90% was excreted after 30 days?

##Silver Hydroxide is a compound dissolved in water, hence ionic..right?
See where distictions become confused?
  Is silver hydroxide dissolved or not?  In this case it is, in that case
it's virtually insoluable. OK, what about in "our" case?

 Many of 'our' terms are incorrect. True.
 It's only been recently that what form ions are in, in EIS, has come up.
 The assumption was that silver ions were floating around in water
unaccompanied, carrying some sort of free charge about..and there just may
be a stage were that is still true to some extent.
 However, those who frequent 'here' who know better and know how 'we' [mis]
use the terms and still slur our 'false' distinctions without saying so...
what of that?




  Although here we would likely assume the former, a

###If the goal of language is to unconfuse the confused but it's not used
that way, then is it being used to further confuse the confused?  Sure
looks that way.
 At best, it comes across as meaningless. If it's meaningless, it's
pointless unless the goal is to preserve ignorance.
 At worst, it's a manipulative bid to twist issues around and make things
appear as they are not.
..nevermind that they aren't what we think they are anyhow...

 An honest purveyor of ideas would first untie the knot before yanking on
the string so as not to tighten nooses.
..so why are we gasping for words that have meaning?

Offhand, I'd say that our purpose 'here' is not to impress the community of
chemists but to wallow out of our own muddy concepts we have found
ourselves in after reading all the misconceptions, falsehoods and endlessly
repeated myths found 'out there', placed there by nonchemists, chemists
with adgendas and pretenders to knowledge.

So far, "chemists" fail to agree on much, which in itself, is a
relevelation of why there aren't more chemists involved.
 Where are the 'electro-chemists'? Probably off in some other field that
doesn't relate to this application.
 To them, running electricity through distilled water is something that
'doesn't work' for their purposes, hence hasn't merited study.
 It wouldn't surprise me to find that they have little to no clue either.

 It sure looks like a field of unknowns and professionals don't care to
admit that such a thing could exist.
 I've talked with highly placed Pharma researchers on the subject and
gotten run arounds that led to silence.
 Being organo chemists, not electro metallurgists...my impression is "They"
have no clue, but won't say so...and can't bear to say nothing.
 PHDs can be like that.  :-)

..but one such person [whom I gave a CS generator to a few years back] is
now doing 'big lab' research on metallic nanoparticles.  He has become
'absolutely' silent lately.

 With the mainstream advent of Curad Silver and AGion technology licensing
etc, it's becoming apparent that much study has been and is being
done...but those doing it aren't here. [to run us around our tails with the
actual proven facts]

I have gotten a new perception of Colliodal Silver and its relations
from following this discussion.  If the boffins all run away and
mutter among themselves on a segregated group the poor white
trash that drinks a daily dose of CS will never know the greater
world of science and experimentation. You must stay and provide
the needed enlightenment for the lurky readers.

 But please do sum up your arguments and move forward.

I would like to read your ideas on disseminating  the information
about  CS to a broader , general public.  I surmise that the readers
here all use CS preventively to maintain a high level of health, so
how do we promote its use to a wider public?

I am ready to toast the best answer with a mug of LVCS!

##...except that we aren't talking about large amounts. Agyria is irrelevent to the discussion.

I don't know how an ion selective probe works or what it detects.
In context of the ionic definitions and distinctions debate going on, wouldn't dissolved silver chloride be "ionic" and be detected by an ion selective probe?




And if the silver is no longer dissolved as an ionic compound that a probe could [or couldn't] detect, where is it and how is it? [Gone metallica?]
If the probe couldn't detect a dissolved ionic compound, what does it detect?...free ions [sans anions] that can't exist?
or is the silver chloride no longer dissolved somehow, as you mention?

Adding later[Ahh, I missed the factor that silver chloride is insoluable.]

Like watching the cliff hanger movie where the hero jumps off the cliff but you don't see him hit the rubble below.It just sounds like something important is being 'left out' of the story with no sequal planned.

What's 'not found' leaves a great big question mark behind it...like the man sitting on a pile of gold who found no silver in his mine.
Did he find diamonds and buy all that gold?
...maybe a rich uncle died.

No matter. It's a joke with no punch line.

Re: CS>Thermal stiring

2005-03-29 Thread Ode Coyote
   It will help but won't be enough to stir a gallon very well unless it's very short.
A gallon jug is very tall and has much more surface area to lose heat than a 7 watt bulb can put out.
It won't heat the water by very much, if at all.

Putting a chimney in the gallon jug should work quite well.  Put spacers on the edges of a funnel long enough to almost reach the surface of the water and invert it into the jug, fat side down.
A plastic funnel can be used as a chimney except for the fact that they float.  Could weigh it down with a stainess washer or two? [Don't use copper]
Instead of spacers on a plastic funnel, drilling a few holes along the edge of the rim  works to let water circulate.

 ## The innovator does it...the scientists tells him what he did.
 But when the ignorant innovator does something really wild [not knowing he
couldn't and not knowing what he did, just that something worked], it takes
the scientists a while to figure it all out and even longer for it to dawn
on them that they didn't know much of anything about that 'particular'
subject despite all the education.

 Electrochemistry is a well developed field and science, but, no one
appears to have done much study on running electricity through "distilled"
water because they were looking to do something else and doing "that"
didn't work well enough to study.

 I know a few electronics engineers who were very surprised that low
voltage electricity 'could' be run through distilled water and don't know
why it can to this day.
 I have a very bad CS generator that was designed by such an engineer who
surely thought he needed a very high voltage without checking to see if the
[ignorant innovators] reality was otherwise.

 The engineer that designed my circuitry said it wouldn't work.  I just
told him to put something on that napkin that does what I want it to and
I'll worry about if it works or not.
 It did. He was surprised.
 I didn't know any better.
 I'm still finding out 'how' it works.

##  You don't get the coating at all till the ionic content IS high.
 Going from tan on the electrode at first and to white later on as ionic

as being any color but white [maybe starting out as tan at first but I
don't remember seeing it do that]...and it only develops in a very high

##  It seems that I can rub either side and get a silver smear. Rubbing the

silver.
 Since there is probably uncharged metallic silver floating around getting

## When allowing electrodes to dry, the wet stuff being dried has those
silver ions in it that form black/brown oxides when dried.  Probably not
the best indicator of anything.

 I'll pay closer attention to what does what, say, if excess EIS water is
whipped off before allowing the electrode to dry, does that make a color
difference?
 I have plenty of dusty black AND white electrodes laying about.  The white
brushes right off with a soft brush.  The black sticks better. I tend to
whip off excess water.

 I think I see your point though.
 If the silver hydroxide IS dissolved, the silver ions and anion hydroxls
are free to float about [right?]
 The hydroxl anion is very unstable and may well be replaced by oxygen to
make silver oxide.
But, there's also that silver hydroxide that's not dissolved...that IS??
stable.. that should dry out as a white or tan powdery substance or coating
and apparently does just that.
 Perhaps silver hydroxide is pressure sensitive?

 Honest Injun..I did see bags of silver hydroxide in at least 2 chemical
catalogs, for sale, with a price.  Why I can't find it now is a mystery to me.

 I did just that yesterday. [Heated colorless well stabilized CS with heavy
TE to boiling in a microwave]
 TE is still the same today. No noticeable change at all.
 Radiation is probably absorbed by the silver particles and energy
conducted into the water as heat at near the same rate.

 Did it again today.
 No significant change in conductivity.
 TE the same as parent.
 No apparent change at all

 What happens to it when it's very fresh or over heated as it's being made
is another story.
 In that case, around 120 deg F seems to be a threshold beyond which yellow
CS [EIS] is the result.

Could you go to their web site and find the page where they display the 
CS generator, and copy the web page address here, please? I couldn't 
find it. (Perhaps the fact I have only *one* language is my problem!)

35 minutes seems like an awfully short time to finish a batch. That's 
one reason I want to see what it looks like and how the electrodes are 
arranged. We would also need to know what it uses for a power supply: 
batteries? How many and what voltage? Mains power? What is the output 
voltage of the transformer?

Do they tell you to add anything to the distilled water, such as salt, 
saline, brine, or soda?

Also, that 35 minutes is with the water heated, right?

With those questions answered I imagine we'll be able to figure out 
what you're doing and if there's any way (or need) to improve it.

Yep. I think both need to happen. Those high-powered discussions where 
the jargon gets flowing and the brains rooting deep into the meat of 
the question... You can't let mere communication get in the way of the 
flow.  But for useful information to come of them, some 
translation is needed. That comes when it's done.

There are several guidelines and rules of thumb that will assist you.

First, if you're copying your recipe and equipment from somebody who 
has done good analysis and had good results in use, then you'll likely 
get the same results.

Some generator designs will yield a workable product that may be a pale 
golden or straw color. This was considered fine for years, though we've 
learned how to make it clear, which most of us now believe is better.

Buy an inexpensive laser pointer and shine the beam through the CS. If 
you can see the red beam in the water, you know that you have some form 
of particles in the water. This is called the Tyndall effect. 

If it is clear, colorless and has a faint tyndall effect, odds are 
you'll discover that your CS works well in use. It may be faint enough 
that you'll need to view in a darkened room to see it.

If you have absolutely *no* Tyndall effect, you'll have either made a 
purely ionic preparation with no particles at all (unlikely), or else 
such a *weak* preparation that it may require bigger doses to work, if 
it works at all. You'd have to run longer to make it stronger.

Taste is another indicator, though it varies a lot between individuals. 
If the CS has a metallic taste, you know that you've got something in 
the water, at least! One person may not notice the taste at all while 
another finds it so strong as to be objectionable. So it's more of a 
yes or no, rather than relative measurement.

Lastly there are tests and measurements that can be made. 

You can usually find an environmental laboratory that can measure 
"silver concentration in clean water" using things like Atomic 
Absorption Spectroscopy, Mass Spectroscopy, or other sophisticated 
assays. They will charge a fee per test, and may or may not be terribly 
accurate despite the expense. It will prove to you that you've got 
something, and give you an idea of how much, but if you change anything 
in your process, the numbers won't be valid any more.  

Then there are instruments like the Hannah Pure Water Tester (PWT) that 
cost about $50 (US) that let you measure the conductivity of the water 
before brewing (very low, hopefully) and the CS after it's made, which 
will give you an approximate idea, again, of the concentration.

The bottom line is that without a lot of expense, you will never know 
exactly how much silver you've got in your water, but it really does 
not matter, because the proof is in the use.

Start with a very small dose (maybe only a few drops) to make sure you 
don't react badly for any reason. Then ramp up until you sense some 
effect. Back off if you get a die-off reaction and start to feel 
poorly. Take enough to just remain comfortable. People use anywhere 
from spoonfuls to liters per day depending on how they make their CS 
and what they're trying to accomplish.

Knowing to the least decimal just how strong your CS

None of us are saying that EIS does not work.  Most of the discussion is
on the process by which it works, gets into the blood, what form it take
when it gets there and so forth. No matter what the consensus on these
points, the fact is, IT DOES WORK, and has essentually no downside or
side effects. So unless you are concerned with the more esoteric topic,
just ignore the discussion.

As far as the result of the discussions, in some places it may be that
we will agree to disagree.

CS>beginners question

2005-03-29 Thread Han en/of Erna Nieuwmans
Hello Mike D.

Thank you very much for your clear answers to my previous questions, about 
heating CS.

The generator I bought last week is made by Special Energy Products, and is 
called the Electrolyser (price around 180 euro). It produces one litre of CS 
per batch. 
I have to leave the two silverelectrodes in the water for 35 minutes.
The instructions say that if the Electrolyser is used properly, the silverparts 
will be less dan 0,005 micron.
They advise to use distilled water and to clean the silver electrodes after 
about 15 min. with a soft cloth and when you are finished, after 35 minutes 
(and that's really necessary, I found!). 
Their website is: www.specialenergy.nl
They sell all sorts of 'alternative' instruments and products, like for 
instance the Purple Plates by Nicola Tesla, which I use as well and which are 
lovely to wear around your neck.  

Indeed, the debate amongst the CS experts was 'the far from my bed show' (to 
use a Dutch saying!), but that's also because English is not my mothertongue. 
But that's something I simply have to accept in this case, that I can't 
understand everything I read on this list. Perhaps in a later stage I will be 
able to understand what the experts were talking about. And I think you are 
right: the info in this list should be for CS users on all levels, also the 
experts should be able to exchange ideas between them, without having to 
explain every single detail to others. But I still think also that Einstein was 
right by saying, that if you really understand something, you should be able to 
explain it to a child. Nice example: the film "What the Bleep do We (K)Now?!" 
The producers were able to explain quantum fysics in a very clear, 
understandable way for everyone who is sincerely interested and even if you 
don't have a scientific background. I have seen it this weekend and found it 
very intesting, a great movie indeed! 

But now my next beginners question, and I would be grateful if somebody would 
answer it:
How can you state what the quality is of the CS you made? I understand that the 
colour says a lot, and if I understand well, cristal clear, colourless, is 
best. Is that correct? 
But how do I know if the CS is 'strong' enough? I didn't receive the bio tensor 
yet that I ordered, but surely there are other ways of stating the quality of 
your CS.

RELIGIOUS USE OF MERCURY ENDANGERING LATINO AND CARIBBEAN
COMMUNITIES 

While mercury contamination caused by coal-fired power plants
continues to make headlines, government agencies have glossed
over an even more direct form of mercury poisoning. 

Dr. Arnold P. Wendorff, director of the New York-based Mercury
Poisoning Project, has urged both the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and the New York State and City health departments
to address the religious use of mercury in Latino communities in
New York City. 

But despite his 15-year campaign, Dr. Wendorff told
BushGreenwatch that the government agencies have yet to
"substantively address the issue." 

In many Latino and Caribbean communities, mercury has long been
used in religious ceremonies associated with the Voodoo,
Santeria, Espiritismo and Palo traditions of Caribbean origin.
During these ceremonies, mercury, called azogue by
practitioners, is sprinkled around the home, sometimes near a
child's crib, or outside the front door of an apartment. The
idea is to repel evil spirits. 

Some 47,000 capsules of mercury are sold each year in local
stores-- called botanicas -- scattered throughout the Bronx.
Such widespread distribution could contaminate up to 13,000
homes. 

A survey of 203 adult residents of New York City found that 44
percent of Caribbean respondents, and 27 percent of Latin
American respondents reported having used mercury in
magico-religious ceremonies. 

Following a ceremony, mercury vapor can remain in households for
years, with severely harmful health consequences. A mere .7
grams of mercury can emit substantial levels of mercury vapor
for over 15 years-- and these ceremonies often use up to 10
grams of mercury. [1] 

Inhalation of mercury vapor is one of the most direct means of
exposure, as the human body absorbs 80% of mercury inhaled. [2]
Even residents who do not practice these ceremonies may suffer
health consequences; mercury vapor can permeate cracks in floors
and escape into hallways. 

Frustrated over the lack of response from the EPA and the New
York City Health Department, Dr. Wendorff filed a new complaint
with the EPA's Office of the Inspector General on February 7th,
but the Agency has yet to respond. 

The EPA and New York State and City health departments, however,
are not the only branches of government to brush off the issue. 

Wendorff has lobbied several members of Congress. He says they
were initially receptive to his pleas, but became discouraged
upon recognizing the complexity of the problem.

Re: CS>Time for closing arguments, perhaps?

2005-03-29 Thread cking001

No Mike, I'm not into manufacturing (as in making more than one, or a
commercial venture).
The term "lethal voltages" is grossly overused, at least in this
instance.
If you have a microwave oven, a TV, or even a bedside lamp, you are
already harboring "lethal voltage" devices in your home.
Common sense is always a requirement, and is not the exclusive
providence of engineers.

This particular instance of hacking a microwave gives you a device
that has a power interlocked door and a programable timer.
Bob Burger was getting kinda excited about this method after starting
to investigate it. "Low Quality" indeed!

It's "safer" than the neon transformer I was using prior to this.

Of course, as usual, YMMV.

I'm always interested in your analysis' Mike but they still have to
pass the grain of salt test.

Oh, BTW, on your mold saga,
I recently tried to tackle a moldy spot on a wall to clean it off.
Tried bleach and other cleansers without much progress before I
thought of TV's Oxyplus as touted by Billy Mays.
I made a pasty concoction with hottish water and smeared it on the
patch. Let it dry overnight.
Darned if it didn't take it right off!
I'm impressed!

Dear Thom,

   Please do not be discouraged by the dialogues on "Ionic

both types have---beyond questionbeen confirmed to evince excellent
control over a large number of pathogenic insults (both bacterial and

scholars, researchers, and academics equal to that of a consequential number
of prestigious (by general acceptance) University staffscurrently

DIFFICULT to manufacture an electrically isolated colloidal silver THAT IS
NOT EFFECTIVE as a bacterial/viral control agent..even when using many
"contaminated water sources".  While certainly not a recommended procedure,
I would not hesitate to use rain-based runoff waterif a life-threatening
event left me no other viable choice.
 I do not wish to take sides in any adversarial exchange on
this list, but feel compelled to say, "man should be allowed dogmatism on
one basis, at least.that being personal experience".  We in the
Academic/scientific community have too-long sequestered unto ourselves, via
self-appointment, the position of sole-purveyors of superior knowledge (some
even claim wisdom)a dangerous
activity at best.  Ingersol, I believe, made an interesting comment (in one
of his more iconoclastic moments) once." Educated experts gather to
declaim an invention or achievement is impossible, while the untaught genius
accomplishes this impossibility-if too many experts gather frequently
enough;  progress may cease altogether."   I certainly do not mean to
denigrate my chosen profession in this life, but do sometimes encounter
sadness when my fellows choose to use their technical/educational advantage
as a "Coward's Castle".feeling supremely confident their intellectual
superiority
insures against any "real" reprisal---from lesser mortals.
The failure in this situation, as I see it, is that we
often (in academia) allow our
subconscious desire to "impress", to overcome our declared purpose to
"express" the knowledge we hold so dear.  Those possessing useful knowledge
are, forever, under a moral mandate to share itin the most simple and
direct terms available to them.  You, Thom, are the one on the high
ground.if only because of your honest desire to learnwith no strings
attached.
 This epistle comes by way of my personal apology for
the times in life I have allowed personal imperfection to enable me in
similar self-indulgences.

Re: CS>Ionic versus Colloidal

2005-03-29 Thread Tony Moody
Hi Marshall,
Granted your point that CS is relatively ineffective in a solid medium. 
But I would imagine that a laboratory that is used to testing 
germicides would know what they are doing. Any food factory / yeast 
producer / beer brewery should be able to help with this or point you 
in the correct direction. . 

It is highly conceivable that the procedure was along the lines of : to 
take a known solution of ecoli (or whatever) and introduce to various 
dilutions of CS for a certain contact time and then to culture those on 
or in agar and then observe / count the ecoli colonies.

hth,
regards,
Tony

I guess that ought to put the discussion in its proper context. What we 
saw here the past few days were the experts thrashing out some of their 
differences of opinion on the way towards being *able* to "explain it 
to a child."  

Now, would you *NOT* like the Silver List to occasionally host such 
debates? Have you considered that the last such discussion occurred 
some *years* ago? And didn't result then in anywhere near as much 
actual progress as we've just seen?

Yeah. This is part of what we do here, too. 

Notice that I stepped in a couple of times to keep them focused and de-
emphasize the personality conflicts that have long compounded this 
disagreement. I think it went okay.

If it's been a little daunting to new people, I hope we only need to 
explain to them that the list is equally ready to address their basic 
questions. All they need to do is ask.

Be well,

Re: CS>basic dumb question

2005-03-29 Thread Mike Monett
Re: CS>basic dumb question
From: Mike Monett
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2005 04:28:54

  Background
  ~~
  Earlier, I  posted  the results of an  experiment  to  determine the
  solubility of  silver  hydroxide  in dw.  The  conclusion  is silver
  hydroxide is insoluble:

http://escribe.com/health/thesilverlist/m78851.html

  Silver hydroxide  is formed during silver electrolysis  and  when cs
  evaporates. The equation is

Ag(+) + OH(-) --> AgOH

  It is  black  or  dark brown, and can  decompose  under  pressure to
  produce silver metal and oxygen.

  Contrary to  recent  statements,   silver   hydroxide  is  stable at
  temperatures under  100C,  where it decomposes to  silver  metal and
  oxygen.

  It is easy to distinguish between silver hydroxide (AgOH) and silver
  oxide (Ag2O) since silver oxide decomposes at 300C (572F).

  Procedure
  ~
  To generate  silver  hydroxide for this experiment,  I  repeated the
  experiment described  above.  When the cathode  was  covered  with a
  black coat,  I removed it and let it dry. The  appearance  changed a
  little but not much.

  The rod was placed on a hot plate under a stereo zoom  microscope. A
  thermometer was used to determine the temperature.

  As the hot plate began to heat up, it was obvious where  the heating
  elements were located. The 12ga silver rod turned from black to gray
  each time  it crossed the spiral element. The thermometer  read only
  160 degrees F when the pattern began appearing. It was very clear at
  180F.

  When the  thermometer reached 210 degrees F, the rod  was completely
  gray. No black coating remained.

  I removed the rod with pliers and let it cool in the air. When cool,
  I wiped  it  with  a tissue. The tissue had a  small  spot  of shiny
  silver metal where it touched the rod.

  I wiped  the  anode  rod, that had not been  heated,  with  the same
  tissue. It left a black patch with a small shiny spot in the middle.

  Conclusion
  ~~
  The conclusion is the black coating produced by electrolysis and the
  evaporation of cs is silver hydroxide, AgOH.

  Reference
  ~
  I previously  located a MSDS for AgOH that stated  the decomposition
  temperature of 100C, but unfortunately lost it and all references to
  silver hydroxide  seem  to have disappeared from the  web.  The only
  reference I can find that mentions the decomposition  temperature of
  AgOH is below. It states 250F instead of 212F:

  Hi Chuck,

  Yes, that's Duncan's as I mentioned in my post. It can be  lethal as
  he points out.

  I said

"My conclusion  is it is simply not worth the effort to  deal with
deadly voltages and currents to produce poor quality cs."

  I produce  far  higher  quality  cs  with  much  lower  voltages and
  currents. For  me,  the  risk  was  not  worth  it.  If  you  are in
  manufacturing, you have completely different requirements.

Brooks,
Thank you for this VERY important piece of information.


I do not wish to take sides in any adversarial exchange on 
this list, but feel compelled to say, "man should be allowed dogmatism on 
one basis, at least.that being personal experience".



Some Native populations really understood (and still understand) the value 
of actual experience. Ivory towered folk can tend to live in their heads and 
forget to (literally) embody -- and value -- their experience. I'm reminded 
of the expression, "My mind is already made up, don't confuse me with the 
facts [of your experience]!"


Ignoring the (valid) experience of others is what dogmatists do. Isn't this 
why many of us choose to self-treat and avoid seeing rigidly trained medical 
doctors?


Best,
Nenah
