To the more research-oriented listers, I have noticed that one of the assumptions all our discussion seems to accept is that, if CS is made with, say, spring water, the silver may form compounds with the other substances in the water.
Now, I can accept that silver-chloride might form with the chlorine in city water, but when I think of it, do we have any hard info or research to substantiate our caution regarding this and other compounds? Who says silver-chloride is toxic? Has anyone demonstrated that these compounds actually do form when making CS? It seems simple enough; make CS in spring or river water, test for the presence of silver-? compounds. Are these compounds not detectable? We believe that the spring water of 100 years ago had more minerals in it, including silver (the soil had more minerals in it); why would we not fear silver compounds in that water? A CS maker is believed to be an excellant water purifier - take the suspected water, dip two silver wires in it and apply the voltage; kills the bacteria - but wouldn't that be essentially making CS out of spring or river water? So now - according to this reasoning - the bacteria are dead, but I'm poisoning myself with toxic silver compounds. Comments, anyone?
