My neighbor’s kids’ school had a mercury spill a few weeks back. Just a little one, yet they took the shoes from 10 of their classmates and destroyed them and the CLOTHES of one of the teachers. She was sitting in her classroom in just one of those paper robes. Poor thing.
The HazMat Team came out; no one was allowed to go back in to the school for the rest of the week!
And they want us to have LIGHT BULBS in our homes with this stuff? Give me a freakin’ break! Yes, I have been known to break a light bulb or two.
Beside the fact that I hate fluorescent lighting-—my eyes get extremely red (a very attractive look), I don’t want something that is going to be such a pain in the butt to dispose of.
I am making like Nancy Reagan and JUST SAYIN’ NO!! ;^)
Yep, that awful stuff that used to be in thermometers that I and a gazillion other kids used to break and play with.
I am 62 years old now but I'm convinced that sometime in the next 40 years or so I will die.
