By jove I think you've got it! That's what I've always believed. Count the significant figures, ie. the total number of nines. So 99.9 *percent* is the same as .999 "fine" and *also* 3 "nines". > I also agree that there does not seem to be any price gouging > going on here.

By the time you count component costs, engineering and testing, packaging, and (gasp!) profit for the seller, you won't be doing much better than these Elixa folks and stay in business. Again that assumes the results are as advertised when one buys and actually uses their equipment. But their claims are internally consistent and better formed than most. > Before anyone goes out and buys the "expensive spread", I have a > sneaking suspicion that the ALCG (Advanced Lamp Cord Generator:) > method might just prove to make an excellent clear/small particle > size solution.

It's expensive, but you've got to find out what you've got. > Judging by what has been said in the article, I too, think the > Lindeman device could be a dependable unit for those looking to > buy one that makes yellow-golden silver consistently.

Having a *good* product is a lot better than having *nothing* while the perfect product is "on it's way." At least we have somebody here who's not being blatently manipulative. He's been so thorough and careful about what he says that it's much easier to accept. Best of luck, and be careful over there!
