Early photographic processes used mercury vapor to develop the exposed plates. Needless to say, early photogaphers had short lives.
Then there were the mad hatters using mercury to produce felt.
I wonder about all the slurry water runoff. Where does that go?
Scary stuff.

Contrary to popular belief, unless you have open cuts, handling mercury won't harm you; though, it wouldn't hurt to wear eye protection and maybe some gloves. The real danger is from mercury vapor.

Jesus Christ! Don't wear any gloves or respirators or splash guards! That entire area has been rendered a toxic death pit with at least a 300 foot radius of toxicity!
