Accidentally ran across this bizarre Ad on Craiglist.

"full of mercury"...."make me an offer".

What is going on here?

Sorry...just thought it was pretty odd...

Brad "oilgasdude", you aren't far from Galesburg...you should go see this guy and see what's going on. You might save a few lives in the process.

No doubt Mick. The other thing that bothered me is that he said that both containers are the same, but one is full of mercury and the other is empty. The empty one weighs just a couple of pounds and the one full of mercury weighs 30 pounds.

Makes me wonder where the other 28 pounds of mercury went?

Pretty scary! I think I hear banjos! smile

I believe this may be part of the propulsion system for a galaxy class cruiser. Very valuable

Hey Brad,
Really weird, huh? The even weirder part is that the guy is looking to do some trading for his biohazard collection. Wondering what he'd want in trade? Maybe some asbestos?
