And don't forget how cool it was to make a "mercury dime" by coating the
silver dime with liquid mercury, which we'd then carry in our pocket and
pass around to show off.  And that's after we were done playing with molten
lead, using lead fishing sinkers, lead weights of every sort, lead solder
in our water pipes, and had tetrethyl lead spewing from every auto tailpipe.

It's obvious why Jim's and my brains are so damaged....
