That is correct, any compound is solution is clear, although it may give
color to the liquid.

You need to learn chemistry.  Any compound that dissolves in water forms
ions. That means that silver oxide (not the tetraoxide, but the Ag2O)
which
dissolves in water IS silver ions.  So you can't have it both ways, that
silver ions are active, and silver ions are inert both.  Silver
particles
are insoluable, thus they cannot be silver oxides (Ag2O). Silver
particles
can be easily determined with a scanning spectrograph, as to size and
composition.  I have done this many times, and the silver particles that
are shown by a laser are a colloid of silver particles.  Even if they
were
insoluable silver oxides like tetra silver tetra oxide, they would
precipitate out, because this compound does not accumulate a charge and
will thus settle out, which the colloidal silver metal particle portion
of
EIS does not settle out.

Once again you are confused. Silver oxides when dissolved in water form
silver ions.  Just what do you think a silver ion is? A silver ion is a
Ag+
atom which has lost an electron, and has an associated cation which is
-.
The cation can be an OH, which is normally what it is in freshly made
EIS,
or it can be an O-- where two Ag+ are associated with it.  In either
case
you have silver ions when it is dissolved in water.  Silver oxode cannot
form particles in concentrations of less than 13 ppm, since that is the
solubility limit of silver oxide.  That is like saying sugar or salt
particles, they just don't happen when it dissolves.

Where do you get this bunk?  Take a laser and point it into the liquid.
You
will see Tyndall. Look up tyndall, it indicates particles.  Look up
silver
oxide Ag2O, and see what it's solubility limit is, which is 13 ppm. Use
you
brain and realize that if you have less than 13 ppm of silver oxide, it
cannot form particles.  Take some silver oxide and dissolve into hot
water.
Then let cool so you get a precipitate. Examine the water, and notice it
has a tannish milky look, not clear yellow like CS.  Let it set about 48
hours and notice that all the milkiness settles out as expected. Take
some
EIS and notice it is yellow and let it sit. Notice it does not settle.
Take
the EIS and put it into a scanning spectragraph and get the absorption
spectrum.  Do this with clear EIS, yellow EIS, gold EIS and orange EIS.
Find the absortptions spectum of each. Go to the library and look up the
paper I referenced earlier and look up the absorptions spectuum of
different silver particles in a colloid (or look in the archives for
graphs
of same I posted previously). Compare them with what you got, and use
that
to determine the mean silver particle sizes.  I have done all this. 
Your
theorys are not validated when they completely go against experimental
evidence and known scientific fact.  If you think any of what you are
sayingis correct then give some evidence, do some experiments, refer to
some papers or books that back it up.

MSP can give argyria. There is no argument there.

Argyria is particles which grow from ions of silver plating out on them,
the very well known photographic development process. By what process
can
particles grow and form argyria when only particles are present?  That
requires silver ions or atoms. In fact there is good reason to believe
that
silver particles help prevent argyria, not cause it as I have outlined
before. That is that although one would expect that the ionic (compound
of
AgOH) portion of EIS to be able to cause argyria, the particles act as
nucleation sites if development takes place, make lots of particles grow
a
little, instead of a few particles formed through photoreduction grow a
lot.
