Good to see that you're thinking about the possible ramifications and liabilities, even if you can joke about the health risks the unsuspecting buyers assumed. You did disclose that mercury contamination when you sold, didn't you? Your partial clean-up and disposal was in full compliance with State and EPA regulations, right? You have to be a real pinhead to see some moral equivalency between that, and my suggesting a book that may or may not have already been on a list of Double Gun Books.

A friend of mine had a bottle of Mercury break that was being used to stabilize a top heavy floor lamp behind their sofa years ago. It splattered and found its way through the carpet and padding, on downward into the tongue and groove hardwood flooring, and even through the joints of the subfloor where it contaminated the floor joists. It also got traces behind the baseboards and shoe molding, and splattered onto furniture. All of it had to be removed and disposed of by a Haz-Mat team and sent to a Hazardous waste landfill. Very very expensive. He and his wife and daughter had to go through Heavy metals chelation therapy because they were exposed while trying to clean up the mess, before the State DER authorities took over when they found out. Of course, once those Bureaucrats take over something like this, there is a ton of costly testing, monitoring, and paperwork. There was even talk of criminal charges because he didn't report the spill to authorities. Fortunately for him, he still owned the house, and his Homeowners Insurance paid all of the costs, which were much more than a new Holland Double. Clean-up, disposal, demolition, reconstruction, medical, and temporary housing while the work was being done... The final tab was enormous.

In the words of Piers Morgan, "You are an unbelievably stupid man, aren't you?"


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
