Is it possible that this elevated Mercury is from the toxic burning debris from the computers at Ground Zero? More fallout from that horrible attack?

Lots of animals that people eat are contaminated with various toxins, including mercury. There was a correlation between the amount of contaminated animals that people ate and their mercury level. --AlexS 21:52, 26 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
