RM,

Nice mug shot in the paper this morning.  Great program to trade out mercury thermometers with digital ones.

Nice?

My thought when I read that article this AM was how cool it was to play with mercury in the lab.  Oh the good times, if only they still sold mercury thermometers.  I guess digital will have to do. [xx(]

"spokes- woman"

"dan- gerous"

"thermom- eters"

Who is this Dan Gerous they speak of?  I presume they failed to reformat it from the print format.  Funny though.

Maybe his wife decided to hyphenate her name and it bent his brain.

This picture is from a few years ago in front of the PSO substation at 34th and Sheridan.

I had a press conference because I just convinced them to give me some free land. Nobody else was stupid enough to build a business that close to the powerlines.

It is now the home of one of my better recycling centers.

I'd put it in your top 1 list.

[RecycleMichael]

It is number two in terms of customers and tons collected.

Our Broken Arrow recycling location is the best center in the five state area.

I wonder how long term the effects are of any potential mercury problems. My mom was a geology professor. I remember, as a little kid, sneaking into part of the lab and getting a small vial of the mercury. I took it home and played with it for days. I remembered how heavy it felt and how it would roll around on my toungue lol. Some of it got lost down the sink, other got lost in the carpet. Part of it invariably got absorbed into my body I am sure lol. I have no idea what house that was, we moved so much when I was a kid. Does it stay in your body and kill you later lol? or does it go on through so that if there was any damage it would have already been done? Perhaps thats why I cant add 2 numbers together, it killed my math brain cells. []

[RecycleMichael]

Yes, you probably lost some brain power from those experiences with mercury.

Here is some health information about mercury exposure from our website...

I've already decided that mercury, chemicals, asbestos, smoking, chewing tobacco, fatty food, carbs, alcohol, cell phones, cancer, etc. won't kill me.

Death will.
