One lymie I spoke to said that they had some CS that did work and then
had some more from a friend that didn't work so well.  I asked what water
they used to make it and it was mineral water not distilled.

    .Who is "they"?  the person he got it from or that he made?




The "they" was refering to the CS that the person used that did not work
very well and that this CS was home made from mineral water.  The CS they
used that worked better was bought from a shop at 10ppm and was made from
purified water.  I guess "purified" means reverse osmosis followed by
de-ionosation resin to bring the ppm down to near zero.
