About the specks seeding silver particle growth, and, possibly I am not
reading your comment right...I'm using common well-water, which has a
'sparkly' TE light-beam. After running it to about 75-85 c in the
microwave to drive off air, the beam is somewhat lessened. Therefore,the
beam is quite obvious on startup of the 10,000VAC generator but has
practically disappeared by the end of hour one. By the end of hour two,
the TE (milky)is as heavy in terms of light refraction but very
refined...no 'sparklies'...by hour three the TE is pretty heavy and I stop,
assuming I will again be building particle size. The point is,I think,
that there is no simple answer to when or whether or not the particles grow
or break down, it probably depends on a half dozen different factors. 11:47
