A. Trying to extract five milligrams of Mercury from almost anything
is hilarious.

B. Commercial florescent lamps have been around since before WWII.
Each bulb contains upwards of 10 milligrams of Mercury. A lot of
bulbs have been put in landfills in sixty years.

Some of the 4 footers (before 1999) could have contained as much as
46.4 mg. each.
Let's just add more toxins to the environment and make sure we cluster
f*ck our future generations!

And Mercury-vapor lamps probably contain more! Point is, the lamps have been
discarded in less than EPA-approved methods for over fifty years and no one
can point to a SINGLE deleterious result. Not one.

Some FISH diets contain more Mercury than that from a florescent bulb.
