[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 14497, member: 277"] Ignacio sez: Back in the older days when men wore hats all the time, hatters used to form and recondition hats using mercury salts. Hat makers handled mercury-soaked fabric and sometimes got mercury poisoning, a condition that affects the nervous systems. Exposure would cause uncontrollable twitches and trembles, making them appear demented to the casual observer. Hence the expression, "Mad as a hatter." Normally I would shake you hand, but I see it is already shaking :wacko: Alan [/QUOTE]
