Silver

Several months ago, I read that silver is a wonderful bacteria reducer in hospitals. I believe that if it is used in air vents, it prevents bacteria from being blown from area to area - kills them....I was reading online last night that the anti-bacterial properties of silver have long been known...Apparently, farmers traditionally used silver buckets to store their fresh milk, if possible - kept it from spoiling...People used to throw a silver dollar in wells, in rain barrels to protect their water. Finally, during times of plague, parents would give their small children silver spoons to suck on in order to kill incoming bacteria - Thus, the saying, "Born with a silver spoon in his mouth". Interesting, huh?

In any case, I'm off the the trailer park in a few minutes - to vacuum a flea-infested unit and wait for the exterminator to come and finish off the job! May drop in on Grace enroute if I have the time.
