Default Mercury cleanup (was Large anvils)

Ignoramus15604 fired this volley in
:

Right. "Mad hatters" were exposed to concentrations, probably millions
of times greater than what you would get from a small mercury spill.


No doubt, Ig. Don't "extrapolate" from my statement. All I said was that
it's less of a problem now than it was in the past.

My primary point was that flowers of Sulfur is NOT an effective way to
contain and mitigate a mercury spill -- unless you're willing to mascerate
the mixture many dozens of times with a tight squeegee or broom over a
period of weeks!
