Played with mercury and lead a lot as a kid. Had lead toys and molds for all type of things, I was always casting lead, and breathing the fumes. If that wasn't bad enough I worked with my grandfather doing plumbing. We would be under a house in a crawl space for hours with a melting pot going and hardly able to breath! It may be dangerous but think it is way over blown. Saw a news video several years ago where some kids had some mercury and they went in with hazmat gear on! This is way over done for sure.
