: One thing to consider is that CJ might have thought Mercury was "moon rocks" because it was called Mercury. He wasn't exactly scientifically inclined so it's a possibility, even if it is a stretch. It makes sense to me that Mercury could be a good portal conductor too. -- [[User:Lagg|Lagg]] [[Image:User Lagg OPTF2 icon.png|link=User talk:Lagg]] 21:15, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

:: Well mercury is liquid at room temperature, so it's hard to imagine it being confused with a rock of any sort. That's not really the point though. What matters is that there is a contradiction. Since the game says "moon rocks" we should too. It might be worth mentioning that previous material mentioned mercury poisoning but we can't possibly give a reason for the change without falling into supposition. Unless an official explanation is given, the games should take precedence as "fact", everything else is a note of interest. {{N}}<span style="vertical-align: 2px;margin-left:20px;">[[File:User Moussekateer signature portal.png|13px|link=User:Alex2539]]</span>[[User:Alex2539|<span style="font-style:italic;margin-left:-27px;font-weight:bold;font-variant:small-caps;font-size:75%;">Alex</span>]]&nbsp;&nbsp;[[File:User Alex2539 signature portal.png|13px|link=User:Alex2539]][[User:Alex2539|<span style="font-style:italic;vertical-align: -3px;margin-left:-1em;font-weight:bold;font-size:75%;">2539</span>]] <span style="font-size:55%">([[User talk:Alex2539|t]]{{Md}}[[Special:Contributions/Alex2539|c]])</span> 01:07, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
