<<There are actually three points to all this discussion: One, that we need to speak like the rest of the scientific world, using their vocabulary and definitions of terms so that they will at least listen to us. Two, that we need to differentiate between large-sized silver particles - what we have been calling *colloidal* - and small-sized silver particles - what we have been calling *ionic* - and three, that the term, *nanosilver* is a term already being utilized by the mainline scientific community to describe silver particles of a very small size. Why don't we use this term also? >> ** Terry has beautifully articulated the issues facing us when trying to speak to the scientific community (and even lay people) and those who perceive themselves as being a part of the scientific community (M.D.s) about CS. I wholly agree that this would be a great task for the group to tackle and necessary if we want to break down the walls between those who know of the efficacy and safety of CS and those who don't.
