I saw a show on tv once a long time ago they had a quantity of mercury in
a cake sized pan with a crescent wrench floating on it. Seems weird when
you see that.

Mercury weights 156 pounds a gallon. Someone dumped two gallons by the
road a few miles south of me. You can imagine the excitement that
generated.
