Yes... Don't drink it unless you want Mercury poisoning. It drives you mad. Newton I think? was driven mad by his alchmy experiments with it. Mercury deposits in you brain, like a few other heavy metals, but because of its large size will not leave once you have stopped taking it so affects you neural pathways indeinitely.
Mercury is not safe to be around. Do not touch it w/ your bare hands or breathe it in.
