Thanks for evaluating my post Lloyd.
byLloyd » but I don't know if the images will be much appreciated by admin. They used to remove images after a while. I don't know if it's because they make it harder for low bandwidth computer users, or if it increases the chances of the forum crashing too much. So don't be surprised if they don't stick around.
Thanks for the advice. I think I rember such information from past reading now.
byLloyd » By the way, I'm not an expert on electricity etc, but since the exclusion zone is only about half a millimeter wide next to the walls of the container,
I was thinking exclusion zones were also part of the structure of surface tension. So I wanted to test for voltage potential across a resistance, charge separation. I thought it would be testing for plasma like effects.
Also I repeated test without the coiled conductor and used only the end of the conductor to penetrate the surface as little as I could adjust it to. I think it eliminated some voltage fluctuations from induced stray voltages.

In Dr. Pollack's youtube interview, he commented that the boiling of the water isn't necessarily what might create the exclusion zones. He thought the bubbles create them and each bubble has its own.
I noticed that it took several minutes for the voltages to dissipate and is vary exciting to me. Sense they hang arround a while a person has more opertunity to utilze them.
I think my next obvious step is to pull out my fish tank air pump and do similar test with it.
Purifying Saltwater
* I talked with my brother about trying to purify water, so I hope he'll try that out soon. I suggested that he add a bunch of salt to the water and use a multimeter on it to see how strong a current the water has before and after running it through the tubes. As he pointed out, he'd have to measure the resistance in ohms, rather than the current in amps. I think the resistance should be a lot less in saltier water and higher in less salty water. Which means the current would be stronger in salty water and weak in pure water, as I think pure water is not a good conductor. So I hope to hear from him about that some day. In the mean time, anyone else is welcome to try that. I mentioned to my brother that with salt I can see a possible problem with the fact that I think the sodium and chloride separate into positive and negative ions, instead of remaining as neutral microparticles. So it's possible that this method won't desalinate saltwater. I see that the sodium is positive and the chlorine is negative. Light is supposed to separate water into negative ions along the container surfaces and positive ions in the center. It seems that the positive sodium would be attracted to the negative water and the negative chloride would move toward the positive water in the center. So we might end up with water containing sodium. But that might be better than having salt in it.
* So that's a question for anyone who's read Pollack's material. Does he explain what happens with saltwater?
If it turns out bubbles alone can produce lingering exclusion zones, at the water surface, could a simple low tech device of simple decant water, suffice for purification?
Decant; as water spilling over the top of a container, at low enough rate, not to exceed exclusion zone production?
You could still test for the conductivity of water before and after.
Even more low tech, Dr. Pollack said jello utilizes exclusion zones, what I might try is put jello mix in salt water and test for conductivity before and after. Should not the jello have a much lower content?
