Actually, that reminds me - I saw a chap in the UK trying to get rid
of
several kilos of the stuff a short while ago. I
can't help thinking
that
*something* interesting could be made using it,
although I'm not sure
what.
Well, whatever you do, don't try putting it in hollowed-out .357 magnum
bullets, nor even .38 specials. It's illegal, and no fun at all.

Is that a veiled suggestion? If so, what is the result (besides internal
Hg poisoning, let alone internal bleeding, tissue damage, etc.)?
