Hi Nenah:
I'll second that... A Big second.
Ozone, however, must be used with understanding, especially if being
used as an "air purifier".
I say this not because ozone, in itself, is dangerous. There is no
evidence to suggest this. The problem is that ozone is such a powerful
oxidizing agent that it can begin to break down substances in the
environment. When ozone reacts with a substance, it will eventually
break it down into an inert substance. However, with some substances,
such as plastics, this process can take quite some time. Between the
time that ozone begins to break down some chemicals, and the time they
are effectively nuetralized, they can outgas.
As our world becomes more polluted, ozone has the potential of literally
being one of the key core substances that may save many, many lives.
I've been researching ozone and ozone therapy now for over eight months,
and it is endlessly fascinating!
Kind Regards,
Jason

Thanks everyone for the ideas. I'm especially
interest in the salt lamps, too. I'm using 3 ionizers
in the house now, but I turned them all off because
Garnet said the ozone was dangerous.
=======================
Sigh.
This is what happens when rumors persist and incorrect info is
circulated as fact. Say it enough, and say it forcefully enough, and
people believe it. Even if it's not true.
First, negative ions and ozone are not necessary the same thing. You
can have an ion generator that does not produce ozone.
Salt lamps are supposed to produce negative ions, the same substances
that are being produced by your electrically powered ionizers (if
indeed they *are* ionizers).
Negative ions are beneficial.
So is ozone.
I'm sick of repeating myself, so you can look it up in the silver list
archives or do a search on Google. The government websites hate ozone
and won't tell you the truth.
I have an entire section on ozone in my book on sauna therapy, if
anyone wants solid documented information -- including the history of
ozone use and how the myths about ozone came to be so widely quoted.
There's information on ions in the book, too.
