Hi list,
I am obviously late to this thread but as a chemist, I would say that the common tarnishing of silver is produced by the formation of a layer of silver oxide, not silver sulfide. While it is true that there are some sulphur compounds in the atmosphere, the concentration is too small to be of consequence.
Cheers

  Mike has a tendency to fixate on one idea, which may or may not have any
real or practical basis, to the exclusion of all other elements that might
modify that one.
For instance:  Sulphur can tarnish silver and some is present in the
environment, therefore, any discoloration of silver HAS to be tarnish from
exposure to sulphur...and any evidence to the contrary gets ignored or
warped to fit.
If anyone points that out,  HE has a fit.

 Mike Monet originally joined the group back in 2006 with complaints about
mold spores which is why he came to us. He was so desparate to find an
answer about his mold problem to the point where he was triple washing his
clothes and burning holes in his bedsheets with strong chemicals. He even
mentioned fires in the microwave in his zealous though misguided attempt to
kill the spores he supected were poisening him.

Mike is a brilliant electronics engineer. At some point his mind fogged and
he suspected the mold. As a result he came here and gleaned information from the group. He improved his eating habits and developed scientific methods of
EIS production. His mind began to clear and he began to refine the process.
Mike's intelligence is such that he has no social skills nearly to the point of being a sociopath. As he got his mind back (who knows if it was spores or
what) he refined existing protocols for EIS production and now has hit on
something that makes logical sense to his electonics trained mind. However
his focus on things electrical and scientific was to the exclusion of social skills and so he blasted through the group like a bull in a china shop never considering he might be hurting peoples feelings. Indeed he would scoff that
a person would allow their rational mind to be overcome by a feeling.

I write this so that you the reader might understand a little of the psyche
of Mike Monet and perhaps be able to forgive the crude manner in which he
communicated. Maybe even have empathy for him as he is surely a lonely
person.
