    " My environmental exposures include: " Casting lead soldiers in a
    closed basement for hours on end while in grad " school. " Coating
    pennies with mercury from broken thermometers and sucking on them "
    the salty taste. " Operating a school lab storeroom to dispense
    items such as benzene, " halogenated " hydrocarbons, concentrated
    acids and the like. " Inhaling nitroglycerin fumes while working as
    a "hole-blaster" during WW2 " Inhaling daily doses of DDT that was
    sprayed over our island to keep the " mosquitos down. " Operating
    quality control laboratories for a cannon and rocket propellant "
    plant. " This exposed me to nitrated amines, nitrated aromatics,
    mercury, halogena " hydrocarbons and benzene, of course. " I guess I
    haven't been too kind to my head but I can't sort out which "
    exposures " did what to my dopamine sources of supply.
 
And do you glow in the dark?
