   I read Steve's message several times.  Most of it seems clear
to me.

If Ion Drift relates to the measurement of CS conductivity, why
have we not heard about it before?
Probably because there is no reason to go that deep into the physics of ionic conductivity in this group. Basically current flow will be proportional to the product of the number of ions carrying the current times the speed that they are moving, just like tghe flow rate in a hose will be the number of atoms inside the hose times the velocity of those atoms. If you double the velocity of either, the flow rate or current will double.
