  Rain water IS distilled water.
However, the jug it comes in is pretty dirty, full of sulfates and 
nitrates, gasses and vapors and has to be rinsed well before using.
 Be aware of what's upwind and the accumulations of waiting for the rain 
on collection surfaces.

the country from clouds probably blown up from Antarctica, anyway from the 
Indian or Southern Oceans.Â


Why I like this idea is that the bottles would not come from a factory 
that is forced by law to protect the inside of the storage bottle with

I won't use tank water for my everyday EIS ingestion, but I do use it in 
conjunction with an old battery generator for emergency use cos I can get high 
silver content solution...and real quick.  Ideally it would be good if I could 
collect it straight from the sky rather than runoff from the galvo roof, but 
I'm not that bothered about it, I've been drinking it for over 40 years and I'm 
still alive and kicking g.

 

I live in a steel producing town too, but then I got a lead smelter a few K's 
across the water on one side and a power station 70 odd K's up the road from 
here so you can imagine what crap is in the air from these three industries, 
nevertheless, I know it isn't going to kill me, or turn me blue or green or 
whatever other colour, so I don't have a problem with it...for the 
circumstances and duration in which I use it.

 

That's not been my 'thinking' but rather my 'practice' for several years now.

 

I use 'El-cheapo' DW for normal everyday consumption of EIS, under $1 a litre 
here.

I'm in the southern US and a friend taught me that where he grew up the first 
rain is called The waters of the birth of the earth. and they are considered 
very healing.  So I caught the first sprig rain in pots I set out that I made 
sure were especially well washed and when I had enough I filtered it through a 
couple of coffee filters and put it in another well washed container and into 
the refrigerator.  Several months later I noticed there was something growing 
in the container.  

I guess my point is, it is not only chemicals you need to look out for from 
rain water.  I had never thought about it before that but when I made my own 
sourdough starter for bread one time I just set out some flour, water and a 
little sugar with a piece of cheesecloth on it and 'caught' yeast... so they 
are everywhere and unless filtered out could end up in the water you are using.

I have also lived on an island that used large cisterns for water collection.  
It was amazing what was found in the cisterns when they were cleaned out.  Made 
me not even want to shower in the water much less drink it!

Hi Rowena,

I use pure roof and well water tp make EIS with a current controlled 
device. 

The rainwater off the roof is stored in a concrete reservoir; when we run 
out of rain water we pump from a borehole into the same reservoir. We 
live in a village which has piped, treated water, but we have locked 
that supply closed because it makes us ill and ruins the veggies and I 
would not use that to make EIS; its unhealthy to start with. I live in a 
fairly remote village in the mountains in South Africa. 

That is the way I make EIS for myself even when I lived in the big city. 
The process is very much quicker than with distilled water. There is no 
need to store the product because it literally takes a few minutes to 
make. If you are going to sell the stuff then it would be a good idea to 
use good quality distilled water for its keeping quality. 

OK,
Tony

CSFw: Lest We Forget

2010-03-20 Thread Sunwaterclear - Sunny
All of us here share the common interest of alternative wellness
methods be it colloidal silver or many of the other things that Mike so
kindly allows discussion of on here.  You, like me, may well have been
led to explore these alternatives because of the failure of standard
medical practice to help you or your friends/loved ones.

I have no healthcare, I can't afford it and don't want it.   I accept
that in certain circumstances [and even those can be avoided when we
are totally present and aware e.g. 'accidents'] current medical
healthcare is our savior. However, the reason we need healthcare as it
is is because the government, food and pharmaceutical industries are in
cahoots to make profits at the expense of our health.

When we address this situation at grass roots level, we will find that
the answer to our challenges and more importantly the challenges of our
children and those that come to this earth after we are long gone, is
to eat healthy and nutritious food untainted by chemicals or additives.


There is probably less hope for those of us alive on this earth today
because we have already been infected.  Unless you grew up eating
organic, untainted food and never touched coffee, junk, sugar etc in
the kind of proportions we are mostly used to, you, like me, will be
facing health challenges.

I write this because I want to urge you to pass on this message and to
watch and if you have already seen them, to share movies such as Food
Inc... Fresh, The Story of Stuff, The Story of Cap and Trade 
http://www.thestoryofstuff.com [both films are on this site] and I know
you are a receptive audience, who care about wellness... and know how
important it is, even if we cannot save ourselves, to make sure that
the Earth is freed from the forces that are destroying our health and
that of the Earth we depend on for our nurture.  We must work to ensure
the freedom of future generations to live a healthy, untainted life.

I wrote this piece today and feel it appropriate to share it here..
with respect and love sunny x

Many of you may have seen Food Inc and been horrified. Such is the
media overload today and our fear that it is easy to forget. I have
transcribed Food Inc in comprehensive note form, word for word in most
cases. I intend to keep reminding people of the very important message
of this film. If you want to help, make sure you share this movie with
everyone you know.

AND the reason we are spreading this information is not fear-mongering.
It is to make people aware. Your inclination may be to feel powerless.
YOU ARE NOT POWERLESS. AND you cannot fight in conventional ways. And
you will make little progress trying to lobby government. That's like
trying to get Hitler to embrace Judaism. We are for RE- EVOLUTON not
REVOLUTION.

The most powerful way to move through this VEIL [anagram that] is to
lose your selfish indifference, we all have it because we are all
fearful in some way of change, to look out for your neighbor, those
close to you, for we can only work at small local levels, and do your
own thing.

Organize small social RE-EVOLUTIONS in your community, You can be more
powerful at grass roots level than as part of a huge group.

REPURPOSE, RE-USE, RECYCLE and REFUSE. Stop buying unnecessary stuff.
How many clothes or phones or gadgets do you really need?

Grow trees, plant heirloom non-hybrid seeds, save them, Get your
neighbors together and start to grow a community garden if you live in
the city. If you are lucky enough to live rurally, get to know your
neighbors, share your concern for what's going on.

Talk about sharing food, you grow one thing they grow another. Look
into getting alternative energy forms that make you self sufficient.
Investigate alternative low cost wellness methods in addition to
growing healthy food.


Grow medicinal herbs,forage for wild foods, catch and filter your own
water,  make your own colloidal silver, explore alternative methods of
healthcare and develop a wellness support network wherever you are
sharing remedies and information.

DROP OUT of the system as best you can. Without our tax dollars and
support of veiled corporations, the system will disintegrate.
