Stephen, you are correct about the granite, the one I have here is also a granite, but the proportion of quart, mica and feldspar are different, the one here is at least 3 time more mica, it comes out in big sheets at a place Catherine and I have found in the wilderness, I have gathered some other stones from that area and I will see if they are acting the same way…..
Linda my dear, one of the thing that stopped me from the blender is, on one side I am trying to create some really good special water, but then I am subjecting it to the 60 cycles frequency, I know the electricity is not going through the water but the field is, so my mica rock does just fine
Fall is here, the leaves are falling and it was time to light the wood stove, the dog has taken her favorite place to sleep, on the front of the stove 
, sometime she get so hot I wonder if she is trying to roast herself, a wonderful beast, never bark, anyone stranger or not is always welcome, I will tell the story about how she came to me….may be in the new thought thread since it is a little strange
