Sorry Dean, He changed it to http://www.bioelectrifier.com/silver.htm I didn't know till your message (almost straight away).
Whenever a link doesn't work, always try going backward to check where it went. And I'll check that it works b4 I post :) Dean Woodward wrote: > I am unable to access the Thomas Millar article cited here. It must have > been removed from the Infocom server.
