Reminds me of the time my dad brought home a good-sized blob of mercury (he was a doctor). It was his rather novel idea to put liquid mercury in the front-end of my brother’s Pinewood Derby car. I remember having so much fun rolling that around in the palm of my hands.

My mom was a nurse. We had mayonnaise jars full of the stuff, it was so cool to play with.

If playing with mercury is that dangerous-why aren’t we all dead or maimed, since we have all played with it...
