My tuna has mercury in it. Do I care?

Ok so we all know that tuna ain't what it used to be, and we don't want mercury. but why? From what I understand, mercury is a Bad Thing for young children and pregnant/nursing women; speaking as a male with no intention to reproduce, what are my concerns here?

Mercury is a poison, can cause brain damage and/or death; however, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't eat tuna. You need A LOT of tuna to get the mercury poisoning that you think of, A LOT! Dont worry about it.

I'm surprised you didn't steer him towards ANPB. No mercury there!
