Some years ago I saw a photo in National Geographic showing a pool of mercury with two people floating on it. The article was about some kind of mining operation (Silver?) in which mercury is either a byproduct or used in separation ... Anyway, they were floating pretty high but walking on it did not appear to be an option. -- Steve Nuchia South Coast Computing Services, Inc. (713) 661-3301
