Abstract
It is pointed out that, although a static charge is difficult to maintain on macroscopic particles, it is straightforward to construct a small object with regularly oscillating electric dipole moment. For objects of a given size, one may then construct an accelerator by appropriately matching the frequency and separations of an external array of electrodes to this size. Physically feasible size ranges, an accelerator design, and possible applications of such systems are discussed.<>
