This suggests to me that de-min water acts differently, I > don't use it so I don't particularly care or want to know. *I came across a reference to this just recently. I believe it referred to a case in which continuous stirring was not used. Where continuous stirring was used, they did not see an increase in the conductance reading. > It's these personal observations that lead me in a particular > direction regarding my own assessments of the do's, dont's, rights, > wrongs, water used, current controllers etc etc etc. I'm beginning to > cut through all the scientific hoo's and har's of ICS and am just > settling for what I believe is a good product I can produce in the > home which will be of an equally good medicinal value.
