We need more lead and mercury in our toys!

From : beekeep

Q: rant mode on a article about lead in christmas ornaments got me thinking about the old days when we decorated our christmas trees with pure lead tinsel and got mazes with mercury in them as toys. the whole fricken house was painted with lead paint to boot for christ sake. the generation that was raised under those conditions developed the jet and rocket engines harnessed nuclear energy put man on the moon and invented the transistor and ic chip. since we took away the lead and mercury wtf has the new generation done the moon has not been colonized we have a fleet of space shuttles that would be considered historic if they were cars and a decent battery has yet to be invented. the only conclusion that i can come up with is that we have gotten a lot stupider since we have removed the lead and mercury. end rant beekeep .
