I don't know if the people who promote this story are sincere (and actually believe this nonscientific claptrap), or whether they are in league with the people who make scads of money from the removal procedures. There is absolutely no evidence that any significant amount of mercury gets into the body from amalgam fillings. Best, Bob ********************************************** Robert A. Fink, M.
