    Fake notice. Mercury doesn't have those effects.

    Dang MS, you beat me to it again

    I used get 1-2 of these hoax things a week from friends and relatives. The most recent one was egg white as the best thing for treating burns. Fortunately they are decreasing as then get to check things out for themselves before sending them on.

    Whoopsy daisy!

    Maybe I should have taken BobL's advice and checked it out before posting. In hindsight, the language used didn't seem very OH&S'ey: "Try not to inhale dust from the broken bulb."

    Sorry for posting it on.
