MERCURY FILLINGS: REALITY IS MORE TERRIFYING:

1.  METYLE MERCURY IS ONE OF THE MOST POTENT POISONS KNOWN TO MANKIND.

2.  METYLE MERCURY DERANGES CSN IN FETUS.

3.  METYLE MERCURY IS ONE OF THE MOST POTENT ENZYME INHIBITORS
    ENCOUNTERED IN ENZYMOLOGY.

4.  METYLE MERCURY DEVASTATES THE IMMUNE SYSTEM.
    ONE BECOMES VULNERABLE TO BACTERIAL/FUNGAL AND
    VIRAL INFECTIONS ESPECIALLY HERPESVIRUS INFECTIONS
    AND VERY ESPECIALLY HHV-8.

5.  DO NOT LET ANY NERD/GIT/DORK MISLEAD YOU:
    ITS MECHANISM OF TOXICITY IS EXTEREMELY WELL KNOWN
    AND DISCUSSED IN ALL LARGE TEXTBOOKS OF TOXICOLOGY
    AND, OF COURSE, IN THE GREAT HANDBOOK OF CLINICAL
    PHRAMACOLOGY (IN OVER 40 VOLUMES).

6.  DETECTING METYLE MERCURY IN HUMAN BODY IS EASY & OCCURATE.


7.  THIS IS NOT SURPRISING:  MANKIND HAS USED/MISUSED/ABUSED
    MERCURY FOR OVER 4,000 YEARS.
    ESPECIALLY THINK OF THE ALCHEMISTS.
    NEWTON WAS INTO IT UP TO HIS NECK.  AS THE MASTER OF THE MINT
    HE TRIED TO STEAL GOLD TRUSTED TO HIM BY USING MERCURY (how?)
    he had already tried to steal Leibniz's calculus.  Newton was
    a kleptomaniac both financially and intellectually.
