The "independent researcher" you refer to is Roger Altman Eng. Sc.D. You can obtain his research data by e-mail at [email protected] and reports on the data are free for the downloading at www.silver-colloids.com All of the questions you raise appear to be answered in the report I read, but I would like to hear your comments after you read it.
