Re: Experiment-clear vs. gold
I shook both silver solutions before adding them to the gelaten mixture. I processed the salt solution for 5 to 7 minutes as specified by Miller. I agree that the silver ppm should be the same for both to make a more meaningful test. I'll try to do this in a couple of days and report back to the list. I'll also try the silver dollar.

Experiment-clear vs. gold
I recently conducted an experiment I think may be of interest. I prepared two batches of silver-one using a few grains of salt, per Tom Miller's instructions(it turned out clear)-the other without salt, starting with hot water and letting it "brew" for an hour(it was yellow). I made an envelope of unflavored gelaten per box instructions. I added 1 tea. of sugar and 1 tea. of cornstarch. I poured this solution into three small bowls. Into one of the bowls I added 1 Tbs. of the clear silver. Into another bowl I added 1 Tbs. of the yellow silver. I placed all three bowls in a dark cabinet. At the end of a week the bowl with the yellow silver in it had no growth at all. The other two bowls had tons of crud growing on them. Maybe someone would like to reproduce thisPaul -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

A good generator
List, Tom Miller sells a great silver generator for $75.00. It maintains a constant current so one doesn't have to worry about the space between electrodes etc. This is not SPAM. I have absolutely no connection with Miller. I bought one of his CS generators and found it of excellent quality. Thought I would pass this on. His page is: http://www.infocom.com/~thomil/silver.htm Paul
clarification please
Mr Hawkins, "Dear Mr. Scott Berner, You pontificating son of a bitch" These words were addressed to Scott Berner by Robert Ray. Is this an acceptable manner of greeting for this list? If so I will start using it. If not please inform us of Ray's forced departure from the list. Thanks in advance, Paul Bass

Measure amperage of the distiled water alone-say with the probes 1" apart. Then meaure the amperage of the silver solution. You would have to have a solution of known ppm to compare it with as a standard. Maybe someone on the list with an analyzed sample could provide this. The results would be an approximation-but a good one. Paul
correction
In my post this morning I erroneously spoke of "Dr. Miller". I meant to say Dr. Clayton. Dr. Miller is my family doctor. I hope the goof is understandable. Let me say what I intended to say; Dr.Clayton's insights will be invaluable to this list. I hope to see a lot more of him.And I DO. Sorry again, Doc., Paul
Let's shake hands
It is difficult for me to see a man who has helped me be criticized, without saying somethng in his defense. I came to the list about two weeks ago with a specific health problem. Scott took the time(off list)to help me - a LOT of time and he was a tremendus amount of help. My symptoms are abating now for the first time in months. I feel this is because of his recomendations. He did this without expectation of anything in return and I am deeply grateful for it. If this is a Noah complex at work, then I'm all for it. Let's have more of it. Mike also took the time to help. I am sure that Dr. Miller's expertise will prove invaluable to this list. I hope we see a lot more of him here. Guy's, let's forget this stuff and get on with the business of helping people who come here sick.Ok? My two cents worth, Paul

staph infection
Jack, There is a product, available in most health food stores, made of grapefrut seed which is supposedly very effective against staph. It is named Citrocidal (not sure of the spelling) and is made by NutriBiotic. Accoding to Dr.David William's newsletter it is being used in some hospitals to knock highly resistant strains of staph. Maybe someone else on the list has heard of it, and knows more about it than I. I hope this helps. Paul
Yellow or white?
I am new to the list and I have a lot of questions. I will start with the one that has me in the biggest quandry. I have read on the net that a white(clear) colloidal silver solution is worthless if not dangerous. The white cloud of silver particals indicate that the particals are to large to work as colloid and may cause heavy metal poisoning - or so they say. On the other hand I have read that yellow colloidal silver contains silver compounds which are toxic. I can make either white or yellowwhite if I use salt...yellow if I use only water. Does anyone know the truth? I would really like to know. Thanks...Paul
