Well the fact of the matter is that mercury is a nerve (and therefore a brain) poison.

Please get some education... Do you know what compounds are? Chlorine is a poisonous gas, yet you ingest a lot of it every day in other forms. Seriously, I can't even begin to comprehend the gaps in your knowledge if you are still defending the link to thirmosal and autism. And why is it that when thirmosal was emoved, autism rates INCREASED? Maybe mercury compounds PREVENT autism?

Nice link, and good information.

But for a direct answer to your question, you may have to try another venue.

Ban notice

LOL! Thanks Emet. The troll got under my collar (and even Tide with Bleach Alternative don't get those stains out!).

Hang on a minute? Controls? What? You want to poison kids with Mercury just to find out what we already know about Mercury poisoning?

The urgent matter is for the poisoning to stop. Its not just full-blown autism. Its SIDS, ADD, Aspergers. They may not seem like bad problems to you. But they are lives ruined, and heartbreak.

I'm glad this guy already got banned, because as someone who has Aspergers, well, lets just say I'd be gone for a while if I typed what I first thought about him...

One question my wife is asking: Is Wakefield now going to cover the cost of all the damage he's done with the profits he's earned?

While I applaud the sentiment, I think he should just go straight to jail, and stay there for the rest of his life.
