Dear Rich REGARDING TITANIUM or ALUMINUM as an electrode



Original poster: "Bill Ackley" <backley-at-satx.rr-dot-com> 

This metals have a valence of +3 or +4 if pushed hard enough, this means
that under the flux of high potential spark you will have a rapid conversion
to the metallic oxide.  Electrode metals, if they are to last should be
found on the periodic table with low valence & high melting point, platinum
would be nice if we could afford it.  Just a suggestion.

Respectfully,
