I think it was, arsenic or antimony or something.

Best, Chris

The arsenic was in his wallpaper paste. It was standard practice in those days to hang flock wallpaper (as was the norm) by using a paste made of arsenic and some other agents.

Hang 'em and flock 'em, that's what I always say.

Abigail Washburn - Song of the Traveling Daughter

Porcupine Tree - On The Sunday Of Life. Haven't played this for ages and it seems a bit strange after mostly listening to their later "heavy" material.
