<< I said Atoms, which sound pretty small to me! Would a suspension of atoms

 cluster in groups
      of 6 or more and thus your atom would actually be smaller!

Fred: Sorry. You'll have to run this by me again. I can't follow your 
reasoning. And BTW, you said "atoms, or large particles...". So I guess we're 
back to roughly atomic size silver particles again.

 >No explosion Roger, I believe God took the free electrons from my highly
     statically charged body and contributed them to the silver ions, as the
     vapor produced by evaporation rose to touch my body, forming a conducting
     path! Try it, you will see it works every time!

Fred: Well, why didn't you say so in the first place? I promise I will never 
ask this question again!

Fred The Ion Man: Thanks for speaking for me. I'm humble enough to admit when 
I've been beaten by razor sharp logic. You win. You win. I give up.
