<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1294152, member: 66&quot;]Always good to see someone else knows that mercury isn&#039;t the &quot;instant death&quot; that so many people seem to think it is.&nbsp; A library near where I live had just undergone an extensive and expensive remodeling then went through a second re-remodeling at a cost of $250,000 because someone broke a fluorescent tube&nbsp; that scattered some tiny droplets of Mercury.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen cases where houses were condemned and torn down because it was discovered that some of the kids had been playing with Mercury in one of the rooms.&nbsp; Recenly on local radio there was a story of a school that was evacuated because someone broke a thermometer.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Absolutely.&nbsp; I remember once seeing pictures of a tropical ocean floor on time that had POOLS of mercury still sitting there that had come from Mercury being brought over to the new world for gold mining that had been lost when the Spanish ship went down nearly 400 years earlier.&nbsp; The ship had rotted away but the ocean life around the mercury pools was flourishing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
