Bright blue like a smurf, maybe. Blue like the "blue" silver turns you, not so much.

I like claim #2- makes this stuff sound like the leading character in a romance novel, and not your current lump of a spouse, you poor dear.

Credit where credit's due...

My Dartmouth colleague Karen Wetterhahn died horribly from a few drops of dimethyl mercury that penetrated her gloves and then her skin.

Most boring comment in the world, I know, but as I was reading that bit about

It's been tested on other strains of the coronavirus, and has been able to eliminate it in 12 hours. Totally eliminate it. Kills it. Deactivates it.

I couldn't help but wonder if this was in vivo or in vitro. I'd be surprised if molten cobalt didn't inactivate coronavirus in vitro, but I'm not going to drink from a crucible of the stuff.

It's like people don't even read for content anymore.

Am I the only white person who thinks that permanently blue skin might actually be kinda cool?
