I have no doubt that the information in this article is true: http://www.mercola.com/2004/oct/16/mercury.htm
But when I was a kid in the 6th grade (many years ago), there was a stoppered bottle of mercury in our science cabinet, and we used to take it out and play with it. It was fascinating to watch the silvery liquid roll around without sticking to anything. I remember holding some in the palm of my hand to see if I could prevent it from sliding off. We had no idea it was dangerous, and, apparently, neither did the science teacher or the school administration. Nowadays, I would not want to be in the same room with the stuff. As far as I know, none of us suffered any health consequences from this stupidity. Can anybody explain why that might be? Del -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
