Douglas McMurtrie I have been slow to pledge any money because I didn't see the groups effort as proceeding in a logical manner. Before an MCT can be performed we must decide what we are going to test with and what we are going to test it on.
Recent postings have indicated a willingness on the part of some to alter priorities and sort out the question of which CS will be used. I personally like the idea of testing several different samples of CS. So far it has been suggested the CS be tested for concentration and particle size but no one has suggested testing for purity. Everyone seems to assume the CS will contain only water and metallic/ ionic silver. What if there is something else present? Shouldn't we know what it is and how much of it is present? I'm not qualified to recommend a sound testing methodology. Perhaps someone else on this list can help. It shouldn't be too complex but I imagine it will require sufficient knowledge and experience to suggest we must first decide "this". Then we can test "that". Then further testing of "whatever" can be done. It may be we will need to find someone to help establish the procedures we should follow. It might be possible that, for an additional fee, a testing lab could assist with this. Others have expressed concern that jumping too quickly with a poorly thought out plan might wind up as wasted time and money requiring us to start all over again and do it right the second time. Assuming we can get it right the first time I believe this effort is going to cost a lot more than $400. For the time being put me down for a $20.00 pledge to this CS investigation fund.
