Yes. "Too much" of ANYTHING is bad for you, but Mercury is dangerous even in fairly small doses. However, the mercury levels in commercial fish are generally QUITE low; you won't get sick from eating fish twice a week. The hysterical mass media needs to work up a good scare before you'll buy their newspapers or watch their commercials.
