    Posted By: JSHarristhe allowable exposure limits are quite high (around 100 µg/m³ in air in a workplace, which is a fair bit in volume of mercury vapour terms)
    They say that anyone with mercury fillings has a mercury vapour level in their airways that's three times as high as the workplace limit.

    I had a 2.5yr bout of severe depression that cleared completely within 6wks of having the last of my mercury fillings out, combined with kinesiologically-guided homeopathic treatment for organ support in eliminating in-body residues (which don't clear unless so aided - well, 50yr half-life).

    Mercury badly affects brain/nervous system in 15% of people, but most can have it controlled by annual homeopathics. But ignored by most of the population, mercury perpetually overloads and prematurely exhausts the immune system.

    I won't ask for evidence on any of those claims. Counter-intuitively fresh picked veg tested against store bought often fails to convince in blind tests. I have to say that I much prefer the taste of my own veg but it may be the same as with wine (if you know it is expensive it tastes better). Something more to do with psychology than physics I presume! I have a day job and thus the garden is a 'hobby'. I would love to have the time to keep it under control by natural means. I rather like the look of a weed free veg patch as well. I suppose it is rather controlling and maybe not green but I will keep it that way as I'm the boss in my garden.:wink:

    You need to adopt the lazy gardener approach which I have perfected. Basic principle is plant, and harvest or plant transplant and harvest.

    Traditional Irish - once they'd got the taties in, there was nothing they cd do till spring so they sat round the fire and sang. The English invaders and anglicised Irish middle class disapproved of such 'fecklessness' - still a code word in those parts.
