You cant just destroy a whole planet just like that !(the expression came from mercury poisoning due to compounds used in making hats 2 to 3 centuries ago)
It's actually the most toxic metal on THIS planet after plutonium
It affects every system in the body but poisoning's uncommon now and should be minimised as more countries (including European Union) eventually ban it
[SIZE="3"]Mad as a hatter !REALLY, Alan? ... I hadn't realised that!
I mean, I was aware of its extremely high level of toxicity ... but never knew it had been used in hat-making. It just goes to show that ... even at MY late stage in life ... I'm still learning new things, thanks to people like your goodself!
Continuing on this theme ... that's just one example of the benefits of a forum such as ours; it's much more than simply a 'helpline'- it's an EDUCATION in itself - a learning curve in which we can ALL share ... picking up innumerable snippets of useful information as we go along!!!
