Another reason amalgam fillings fracture teeth is that as they

Care to document that?
I have lots of fractured teeth. None of my teeth without fillings
are
fractured.Almost everyone with amalgam has fractured teeth.
I have amalgam fillings and no fractured teeth.

By the way ,Igot well over 650 on the math SAT. I scored in the top
one
% of the population.
Whoopee. I got an 800.
Of my 720 classmates, 91 got an 800. The lowest score was just under
700
If you took the SAT before 1995,less than one percent got 700 in math
.Less than one percent got a perfect 1600 so you are lying again.
Nobody mentioned a perfect 1600. Are you living in the same reality
as the rest of the readership?
ARe you? For reference the claimed average Math SAT scores of the
quackwatch team is now higher than that of the Freshman class of
MIT (on the old SAT) and way above the incoming class of Harvard.
The SATs of quackwatch are irrelevant. How much are they being paid for
their unobjective opinions?


A truly moronic statement.

How could anyone with double 400s on the SAT


Let's see...when I took the SATs in the 1960's double 400's meant that the
person was not getting into college and had to look to a trade school, and
hope that they were not 1A.


See how Mark keeps changin his *anecdotes are bull*****.

Try placing it in context.

In context, we were discussing human events, and not trying to prove a
scientific principle.

You could get out there and meet some real live people. You could even find
that often those anecdotes are worth more than the proof you cry for. Or
you can continue along the way you are. Won't matter anyway, we all die
sooner or later. trt


1) Your method of responding results in incorporating your response with
my comments, thus making it difficult to ascertain who said what.

2) I do live among the real world, and have friends who are dying from
cancer. I have losses in my family from cancer.


Anecdotes are bull****. I use facts.

Anecdotes are limited FACTS and not necessarily conclusive.




Anecdotes are bull**** and prove nothing.

True, I cannot. You may not have noticed that I said so in my post. But,
not having sufficient proof for you is not proof that my words were not
true.


Hogwash. If any alternative met those criteria, the information would be
readily available and you would post a few hundred links.



I KNOW a person who was diagnosed, and refused to go along with the
accepted treatment. That person is alive today, some 10 -12 years later.
With no sign of a reoccurrence. It may surprise you , but most people who
get well without a doctor, do not keep records. They just get on with
their life. trt



What would surprise me is that my question were answered with something
other than an unverifiable anecdote.

not see that amalgam
exposes one to toxic levels of hg since people with many fillings lose
more than 150 microgms/day in urine and feces whereas people with no
amalgam fillings ,who never had any, lose 2-10 microgms/day.These
amounts don't include hg that is stored in the brain and other organs
or hg lost in sweat.10 microgms/day from all sources is a toxic
level.Do the quackwatch people believe that people with amalgam
fillings eat more fish or break more thermometers that people with no
fillings.


Since you claim there is storage of mercury, and mercury is omnipresent in
the environment, has there been a mass die-off of those who are so-called
"poor excretors" like David Kirby mentions? The concentration of mercury
has to eventually reach the fatal level.

Oh, and the other point....can you cite chapter and verse that the
excretions you mention compare to concentrations that would have a toxic
effect, or, are you one of those who claim that dose does not make the
poison?


Mark is just arguing. It has been posted many times that even *low* doeses
cause health problems.

Statistically, the distribution claimed could occur in a magnet type
school if everyone in the school was in the top 1% of the population.
But what relevance would that have to most schools where an 800 would
occur far less than 1 in 100 which would roughly correspond to 700,
