I've had enough of someone else's propaganda. I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

My father once brought home a small bottle of mercury. Poured some into a bowl, and then dared my brothers and I to try to pick it up. We spent quite some time playing with the mercury, until the novelty wore off. This was over 30 years ago. My dad was an electronics engineer and had access to lots of cool stuff. He was part of the team that developed the first motion activated toilets and hand dryers.
According to the ADA, mercury binds with the other metals in amalgam and is thus rendered harmless. Of course, that's what they say. I never liked the idea of having a substance in my mouth that turns aluminum foil into a firey screaming electrical shockwave transmitted directly to the most primordal recesses of the brain, inducing panic and a split second vision of ripping ones mouth off ones face.
As time marches on, and we learn more and more, hindsight tells me playing with mercury might not have been one of my dads better ideas. And yet, amalgam has been used for over 100 years. Yes, it may be time to discontinue it's use. There are alternatives. Pandemic? That's a little rediculous. I won't be rushing anywhere to exchange my fillings.
