Mercury is considered dangerous because it vaporizes, right? Wouldn't the small quantity of mercury found in a CFL fixture be pretty well vaporized within a few hours, and pretty much gone within a few days?
I would think the key step to minimizing the hazard would be to ventilate the area of the spill and not stay around that area or the broken pieces for a few hours.

I'm still wondering what happened to the ozone layer,ozone hole.I guess that problem was solved when I wasn't listening.
I've read of late that there was a concern about global cooling in the 70's which I don't remember.(I don't remember the cooling "crisis",I remember the 70's just fine).I guess that problem became global warming.When I read the articles today about warming,they usually mention the average temperature rise in the past century,and then note the increased rate since...the seventies.Well,if there were those who thought that the trend in the 70's was cooling,it stands to reason that average temperatures had been dropping up to that point.It is therefore a bit disingenuous to speak of the rapid rise in temperatures since that time if you do not at the same time identify that base period as the trough it appears to have been.
Foxy Loxy: "How do you know the sky is falling?" Chicken Little: "I saw it with my own eyes, and heard it with my own ears, and part of it fell on my head!" Foxy Loxy: "I see. Well then, follow me, and I'll show you the way to the king." Narrator: So Foxy Loxy led Chicken Little, Henny Penny, Ducky Lucky, Goosey Loosey, and Turkey Lurkey across a field and through the woods. He led them straight to his den, and they never saw the king to tell him that the sky is falling.
