[i]t defines mercury on a separate part of its Web site as a “highly toxic heavy metal that can cause brain damage and learning disabilities in fetuses and children”.

That explains a lot! When we were kids we had a bottle of mercury, which we would pour on the floor and play with. We did this for a whole summer. Well, it didn't seem to do us any harm, and we would hold the mercury in our hands. It's really fun stuff.
