Ah, makes sense. I guess that someone (not necessarily I) is in the clear as it was not a prolonged exposure. However, since that someone (not necessarily me) may or may not have disposed off the drops of mercury improperly, I wonder how often people disposed off of mercury properly in the past.<p>There is some awareness about asbestos but probably not mercury. It&#x27;d suck to buy a house and a month later discover a puddle of mercury in the attic.
