Again, so what?

No one has "changed their minds" about the toxicity of mercury, what is
being done is that the level that causes no harmful effects is being
refined. That is something very different from "changed their minds".

Again, no one has "changed their minds".

No doubt one can find many examples of the science being refined.

Your calling refining levels based on added data "changed their minds"
sounds like paranoid arm waving.

Accidents for one, better instrumentation for another.

Mice and rats are NOT little people.

You do know theobromine will cause heart attacks in dogs?

You do know Tylenol will shut down a cat's liver?
