Ode! Thanks for the laugh! I can only think of this in terms of pathogens filtering through a bed of granulated media and particle size distribution, plus the amount of metallic silver that's bonded. In my ignorance of a lot of science I make analogies that suggest entropy, but still need to think this through. Plus I don't habituate the bars.
