Did You Know? "MAD HATTER'S DISEASE"

DID YOU KNOW that during 1900's, makers of hat (hatters) experienced behavioral and personality changes together with memory loss, loss of hearing and blindness due to chronic exposure to MERCURY, specifically mercuric nitrate?

They used mercuric nitrate to convert fur to felt... Since behavioral changes were observed in makers of felt hats, the condition was termed MAD HATTER'S DISEASE.

MAD HATTER... He might be experiencing the disease, don't you think? (source: allhatnocattle.net)
