   That is the implication. Mercury ( the god or messenger of the gods) was called that because he was quick and if you’ve every played with mercury you’ll see the reason for that. Mercury is also called quick silver.

   The liquid in the thermometers is red. Means they’re using alcohol, not mercury.

    Mercury the swiftest of the gods, and the bringer of dreams and the prowler of the night.
