I don't believe that the commercial CS being sold in Mexico (there are now about five brands available to me, all basically the same) has been rated at 3200ppm, even though I was guilty of making that statement early on, until corrected.
Apparently Microdyn and the others have not been officially tested by anyone known on the list. The "3200ppm claim" comes from the fact that most of the commercial CS brands (but not all) are rated as being "0.32 percent" CS. That would be 3200 parts of a million, but not the 3200ppm we're talking about, as I understand it. But Mexican CS is very potent, works quickly and is cheap. A 1.3 ounce bottle costs less than a dollar and lasts at least a month with daily usage. The entire city of San Luis Potosi, Mexico, population 1 million, has successfully used CS to purify the city's water supply for the past 40 years. . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Reid Harvey" <pott...@wlink.com.np> To: "silver list" <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 7:13 PM Subject: CS>reply from a company selling 500ppm CS > Andy, > I think you owe Dr. Schwartzman a serious apology, the fact being that > you are 100% wrong in your assertion that 500ppm CS cannot be made.
