I haven't been following this thread but this does bring up an interesting
point. I have read in sources outside of the alternative health community
that silver is an antimicrobial agent effective at extremely dilute levels. I
don't recall exactly, but my memory is that it was in ppb (parts per billion)
that was being referenced, possibly in wikipedia or maybe webmd.... sure wish I
could recall.
What I have read ad nauseum is many accounts of ways in which to beef up ppm my
amazing levels.
So - in general we know that CS at levels between 5ppm and 20ppm are effective.
But has anyone looked into what level of strength CS has to be at a minimum
to have a beneficial and observable effect?
I'm curious. Perhaps we have just assumed that 0.5ppm wouldn't be helpful, but
haven't tested. It's just a thought. Not wanting to take sides either way,
but am just thinking that this might be worth exploring.
Cheers!
And now to go back on my word! Suggesting he was fooling himself wasn't a big
attack, but on the other hand it was a little bit naughty! A little bit. Not
enough to warrant anything more than a casual glance. That's my take. I
think we all need to relax and not take ourselves too seriously. Eventually we
will all be pushing up daisies anyway and who wants to spend their spare time
worrying about who may have gotten the upper hand or won or lost a difference
of opinion?

Subject: CS>Ad-hominen attacks.
When I asked for an example of my 'ad-hominen, unkind' attacks the best Malcolm
could provide was this...
"You Strongly suggested that Tony was a fool, using his own attempt to provide
the information that in using CS on animals, the animals are not usually
susceptible to the placebo effect. in doing so you used a "straw man" argument,
thus employing both the "kill the messenger" and the "ad
hominem" rhetorical ploys combined. QED."
Please look at what I really said to Tony...
(But first,this is what Tony said regarding the surprise news that his CS is
only 0.54ppm)...
"Now the important thing is that this stuff works as I said. It's not just
placebo, I COULD FOOL MYSELF, but I doubt that one can fool cats, dogs and
chickens all the time... Tony"
My answer was this (and ONLY this)...
"Well I'm sorry to say it Tony but yes you probably are fooling yourself. Half
a ppm isn't going to do anything in my opinion"
That didnt seem too harsh to me. I could have said more. I could have said "No
you can't fool the animals but you could be fooling yourself that the health of
the animals is due to the CS", or something like that, but I figured my brief
response was adequate.
But the sad thing here is not really Malcolms overblown sophistry. Its the fact
that a regular poster on here, handing out advice to other members and newbies,
is claiming that half a ppm (probably dissolved in gallons of water) is
performing great things on himself, cats, dogs and chickens. But no-one but me
questions it! Instead, I'm accused of being a (whatever Malcolm meant) for
pointing it out!
