Hello to the List,

Mike, I have some problems with a couple of things you just published,
nothing personal. :)

"credible threat"?
What are you basing this statement on Mike? Are there cases of argyria
documented from the use of true colloidal silver solutions (without any
contaminants/toxic salts/other forms of silver/other methods used to
produce the silver used, etc)? Any cases connected to the type of colloidal
solutions we are using? Using no electrolyte? Pure distilled water? I
believe this is an unfounded concern in regard to the type of solution 
generally made by those on this list. Can you prove otherwise?
If you have documentation to the contrary, please bring it forward. If it
is "credible", let us have it please!

This goes well beyond just the amount of silver that is consumed, it is a
matter of the form, and the purity of the silver, as well. In a colloidal
form, there is no evidence of any build up in the body. Any research to the
contrary? According to Sota Instruments: The larger particles (non
colloidal, and much larger in particle size) can be a problem for the lymph
to remove from the body, these can be stored in the skin , resulting in a
graying effect. It is NOT TOXIC (if it is pure silver), in any case (and
can be reversed through chelation therapy). This again depends on the type
of silver that is used and the form it is in when used. There is NO reason
to anticipate anything like this even remotely occuring from using a good
colloidal solution. Junk solutions (bad water, impure silver, additives,
etc,etc), now these are another matter entirely. These are NOT pure
colloidal silver solutions!! Let's not confuse things.

Read it!


>He has the best understanding of the CS situation that I've seen.

"....sticks to the truth"? "...states his opinions with supporting
evidence,"?????????????????

Mike, I can hardly believe this fellow has you snowed like this! I posted a
statement concerning this website and caught him in several lies...one of
them being that DC generated yellow CS solutions turn into clear solutions,
having had their silver drop out of solution within a period of 2-3 weeks.
This is a bald faced lie! Why do you ignore it?
There are others on this list who have had solutions retain their color and
particles for well over 6 months. I have some DC generated colloidal gold
that is still on the shelf (protected from the sunlight)and the color is
the same after OVER A YEAR! I have had silver that has retained it's color
for over a year, but we used it. Now the oldest vintage I have is 6 + month
old silver, sorry! I don't appreciate Lindeman's lies on these matters. I'm
shocked that you would promote them!

It is possible to make clear solutions with the simplest mechanism, and
exceptional solutions. I have personally consumed these and found them to
be VERY POTENT. I have some on the way to the lab right now. His claims all
lead one to purchase his expensive generators. "Not impartial"? that is a
real understatement!!

Like I said, nothing personal Mike old friend. We need to keep the story
straight!

God Bless,
