Here’s the story, along with a few eye-opening tips that might help you avoid similar difficulties when traveling with your colloidal silver-making equipment…
Hi, Steve Barwick here, for www.TheSilverEdge.com...
This has got to be my favorite news story
of the year.
Apparently, on November 28, 2012, a hotel housekeeper at the
Paramount Plaza Hotel & Suites in Gainesville, GA entered a hotel room when
the guest wasn’t there, and found a "suspicious device" and a
"suspicious substance."
The police were called, and afterwards the Sheriff's bomb
squad and a Hazardous Materials team joined the investigation on the premise
that a dangerous "meth lab" may have been discovered in the hotel
room.
The entire hotel was evacuated as a precaution, as
authorities pursued their investigation.
Colloidal Silver the
Culprit
Then, two hours after the evacuation, the surprised hotel
guest returned to the hotel. He
apparently explained to authorities that the "suspicious substance" they’d
found in his room was a Big Gulp cup half full of colloidal silver!
Although the news article doesn’t specifically say so,
apparently the "suspicious device" found in the room was a colloidal
silver generator.
I don’t know who should be more embarrassed, the snoopy
hotel staff, the over-reactive police, the Sheriff’s bomb squad, the Hazardous
Materials squad, or the guy who apparently left his hotel room with his
colloidal silver generator running, not expecting any hotel staff to enter the
room.
According to a Gainesville Police Department spokesman, “We would much rather take all safety
precautions anytime a suspicious device is found to ensure safety than not do
enough.”
Well said. But
nevertheless somebody oughta be awfully darned embarrassed over this incident.
Crazy, Crazy World
Folks, we now live in a crazy, crazy world where you have to
be darned careful for just about everything, apparently including where you take your colloidal silver generator.
Frankly, this story did not surprise me in the least,
because I experienced a similar event not too long after the 9-11 terrorist
attacks on this country.
Indeed, shortly after 9-11 an investigator from the Office
of Naval Intelligence show up at the doorstep of my office asking why I’d just
purchased 200 wall timers from a local electrical supply house.
Apparently, with a few modifications, wall timers can be
used by terrorists as makeshift explosive devices. And the authorities were apparently worried
that I might be some nutcase who was getting ready to blow up half the little
town I lived in at that time.
A wall timer is included with every Micro-Particle Colloidal Silver Generator sold (see photo,
left), so customers can set the timer for the requisite three-hour production
time, and leave, not having to worry about being home to shut the generator off
later. The timer makes shut-off
automatic.
So I buy hundreds of these timers at a whack, in order to
fulfill customer orders for the Micro-Particle Colloidal Silver Generator.
But you should have seen the disbelieving look on the
investigators face when I tried to explain all of this to him.
I literally had to unpack an entire box full of pre-packaged
Micro-Particle Colloidal Silver Generators in front of the investigator, and
then set one of them up and run it for him, so he could see the entire process.
And just so he knew for sure that I was not some nutcase, I
gave him an autographed copy of my bestselling book on colloidal silver, The Ultimate Colloidal
Silver Manual.
Unnerving…
Now I’ve been around the military most of my life, because my
dad was a career Marine. I’ve lived on
military bases. And I’ve even worked on
a military base as a young adult. So I’m
quite used to the military way of life.
But believe me, when you have an investigator from the
Office of Naval Intelligence show up at your doorstep demanding to know why
you’re buying electrical apparatuses in bulk, it’s more than just a little bit
unnerving, to say the least.
And even more so afterwards, when you realize that somewhere
in the intelligence community, in some obscure file cabinet, there’s a file
with your name on it, associated with a federal terrorism investigation. Not
fun!
Thankfully, the investigator was a swell guy once he figured
out I was on the up-and-up. He was
fascinated by the concept of the Micro-Particle Colloidal Silver Generator, and
said he’d give the copy of my book to his wife, who was “into alternative medicine.”
And since that time I’ve never had a bit of trouble even
though I’ve had to purchase thousands upon thousands of pieces of electronic
equipment now that the Micro-Particle
Colloidal Silver Generator has become the world’s #1 best-selling colloidal
silver generator.
A Few Helpful Tips on
Traveling
With a Colloidal
Silver Generator…
People email me all of the time asking about travelling with
their colloidal silver generators.
Now I suppose these little machines are most frequently
referred to as “home” colloidal silver generators because that’s where they
belong, i.e., in the home.
But I understand that sometimes when you’re going to be away
from home for an extended period of time, you might want to bring your
generator with you so you can make fresh batches of colloidal silver wherever
you’re visiting.
This is often true, for example, when you might be visiting
out-of-town (or out-of-state) relatives or friends, and you want to show them your
colloidal silver generator in operation, and let them sample some freshly made colloidal
silver.
So my #1 suggestion is that if you’re going to be traveling away
from home for any extended period of time – particularly if you’ve chosen to
travel by air or by any other form of public transportation such as train or
bus -- simply package and mail your
colloidal silver generator to the address you’ll be staying at.
Don’t take it with you on the airplane, train or bus. The baggage inspectors are just too
hyper-vigilant about electronic appliances they’re not familiar with. And the likelihood your colloidal silver generator will
be confiscated for “further investigation” is high.
So send your colloidal silver generator by UPS or FedEx, and
be sure to pay the extra small fee for shipment tracking.
By shipping your generator to your destination via UPS,
FedEx or some other reliable shipping service, you won’t have to worry about
having it confiscated at the airport, bus station or train station if some
lughead TSA wannabe in the baggage inspection department confuses it for a
portable “meth lab” or an explosive device.
And by purchasing the shipment tracking service, you can
keep track of where your package is at at any point in time while you’re traveling. How? Simply
by using your laptop computer or smart phone to log into the website of the
shipping company you’ve chosen, and enter your package’s shipping number into the
tracking system.
Also, when shipping your colloidal silver generator
anywhere, it’s important to make sure it’s clearly
labeled.
The label should identify the machine as a home colloidal
silver generator. And it should include the name of the company that
manufactured it, and plenty of contact information for the manufacturer, such
as the company’s phone number, email address and regular mail address.
After all, shipping companies like UPS and FedEx are now as hyper-vigilant
about package contents as airports,
trains and bus stations are about luggage
contents.
Most shipping packages are now x-rayed as they come down the
conveyor belt before being loaded onto the delivery truck. And suspicious packages are opened and
thoroughly inspected.
So you want to make it as easy as possible for some overzealous
security inspector to see that the electrical apparatus in your package is a safe and benign consumer product, so he won’t
confiscate it or sequester it as something needing further investigation.
For example, TheSilverEdge.com includes in the packaging
with every Micro-Particle
Colloidal Silver Generator a printed Operating Instructions Guide, plus
Special Reports on making and using colloidal silver, as well as two business
cards featuring complete contact information for both the Sales Department and
the Tech Support department.
These are the kinds of printed materials that will go a long
way toward identifying your colloidal silver generator as a benign consumer
product should it somehow fall into the hands of an over-vigilant package inspector
during shipping.
Even if you prefer to travel by car, and stay at hotel rooms
with your colloidal silver generator, by following the above-described labeling
and packaging advice you’ll go a long way toward preventing some snoopy hotel
room housekeeper from mistaking your generator for a piece of equipment from a "meth
lab" operation and calling the cops.
However, no matter how well labeled your colloidal silver generator
might be, I certainly don't recommend leaving your hotel room with the machine sitting
out in the open, and running. That’s
likely what happened in the recent hotel incident described at the beginning of
this article.
Obviously, it could turn into an embarrassing situation for
you should a not-so-bright hotel housekeeper enter the room and think you're
brewing up an illegal concoction.

I follow your blog and I always like what I read. Very informative when talking about colloidal silver for human consumption. I wanted to let you know that I have formulated colloidal silver for agriculture and I have a product that is slate for release in 2 weeks. my website is http://www.silvernutrients.com/ and I formulate colloidal silver at 20-30 ppm and sell it by the gallon. I was hoping we can connect and network! thanks
