I've put off publishing a FAQ for no other reason than lack of time or energy for the product. One is needed. In fact, were I to publish such a FAQ, I would include, as Jason has, instructions for the simple, unregulated CS generator as a way to introduce the basics of the process and build the foundation for other refinements. My taste runs toward simpler page design than Jason's, but the content he's created and assembled is damned good. In answer to your question, Catherine, yes, I welcome anyone's efforts to help newcomers. Jason's site is an excellent resource.

He might as well add some salt to speed it up. Mike, this is just rude. I admire the poise of Jason's reply. He treated you, as I would expect of him, better than you deserved. Most of us started out with just such a generator. We had "a clue" about how to make CS. Nobody ever exploded a battery that I know of. The stuff we made, even in the bad-old-days when we used salt, demonstrated the powerful effects of silver preparations, long before you were interested in the subject at all. > That page will bring a lot of people asking - why does my cs turn > black? No more than it ever did. CS generation is not rocket science at this level. Newcomers need minimal guidance -- pure water, pure silver, clean procedures, close attention to process -- to avoid the usual mistakes made by newbies. Refinements can come after, as they're ready for them. > Actually, if he added a 100k resistor in series, and used 3 ft of > 12ga cut in half and folded into a "W", he would be making the same > thing we are talking about now.

Clean electrodes, non-critical operation, good quality product, simple enough to construct... Sure, it might be a good way to go. But *don't* ask newbies to solder, for heaven's sake! What you miss, in your haste to trash Jason's offering, is that he very carefully guides the newcomer through the process, warning them away from all the things you fancied are wrong with it. > Patience, me hearties. Faster is not better. This is true in diplomacy as well as making CS, Mike. Heed your own words. In the Silver List rules under "Commercial Activity" you will find the following paragraph: "This is a non-commercial forum. No vendor may participate except as a private individual. No promotion of any kind is permitted without my prior, explicit approval of each occurrence. No vendor or representative may promote a particular product or malign any other." These terms were developed to protect the forum from the corrosive effects of competitive one-upmanship between vendors. Though I fully recognise you are not a commercial vendor, I will make a special exception for you. Please, from now until I say otherwise, refrain from posting comments that malign the work, process, or product of any other vendor, researcher, or user. *WE* are your peer review, Mike. Stop tweaking our noses, or you may not be around when everybody finally decides that you were right. Be well, all.
