Yes, it's part of the insanity of this world and the blatant contradictions that go on (and injustice). It just defies belief. It continually shows they know full well about the toxicity of mercury and the way dentists have to handle it and dispose of it (yet it's ok to mix in an amalgam and put inside the mouth, of ALL places).

The mouth is probably the worst place for mercury, even if it's in a solid form in an amalgam. You think of the saliva, the hot fluids we drink, the chewing, and the location of the mouth itself and it's bizzare. If you WANTED to poison someone, but not outright kill them, this would be the ideal way to do it. Slowly, painfully and in a way that would ensure one of the worst kinds of toxicity in the ideal location, but it would be so insidious that the person would not know what was going on.

Funny thing is, they knew about mercury's toxicity hundreds of years ago and removed it from dentistry......how is it, they re-introduced it?
