Heavy Metals are poison, very toxic, mercury is nasty,...hat makers used to have a lot of mercury poisoning, it made them go insane,...that is where the term "mad hatter" came from.

Extreme consumption or exposer to heavy metals will eventually lead to death,
but oh well, we all will die sooner or later any way.
The problem with heavy metal poisoning, it is a very slow , and painfull way to die.
There are some programs, applications written for Linux and Debian that
are used in labs and the analysing, testing, experimenting, etc,...mostly
collecting data and analysing it.
So after all said and done, I do everything I can to avoid letting any heavy metal
get into my system, once it is in the system it eventually gets into the head, and
causes considerable brain damage,

Arsenic is the most common cause of acute heavy metal poisoning in adults (but the source is not from soils). Arsenic is released into the environment by the smelting process of copper, zinc, and lead and from manufacture of chemicals and glass. Lead on the other hand is the leading cause of heavy metals poisoning with major source coming from soils. Excess levels of lead in soils greater than 400 ppm result from prior use of lead paint around houses, lead-arsenate sprays for pest control during 1910-1950s, use of leaded gasoline (up to 1996 in Oregon), locations close to former smelters & tailings from metal ore mines, and proximity to fossil fuel-fired electrical plants. Therefore the culprit to look for when looking at heavy metals in soils is lead toxicity.
Listening to the screams of patients, or persons dying from heavy metal poison
is a very unpleasant experience, to say the least,...but I suppose there are people out there that enjoy that kind of thing.
