Hi Mark,
I did not mean top imply that Ag and its salts are toxic for humans, but to
bacteria. I would imagine one would like to ave bacteria at work in a landfill.
That Romans got lead poisening from lead water pipes is an urban myth. I saw
the water papes in Pompeii—totally encrusted almost to occlusion be deposits.
The Pb-poisening happened to the roman upper-crust, because of drinking highly
acidic wine [much ore so than today's wines] from Pb-containing vessels.
