Warning: Seventy-Two Percent of Grocery Carts Have

The only spooky thing are the drug resistant germs. Please don't demand an antibiotic from your physician. If one isn't ordered, it's because it won't help. If you do get a prescription, take the entire thing! Those two scenarios are responsible for our super bugs.

I'd add "antibacterial" (with triclosan added) soaps to your list.

It's all this actibacterial use (along w/ the ewwww-paranoia) that actually helps spawn the growth of super antibiotic-resistant strains.

You ever wonder how we ever survived this long with all this around us?? ....and yes, Virginia, it's pretty much always been there!

Exactly,

Here in Oz (I suppose in the US as well) they are advertising a no touch antibacterial goo dispenser. Apparently these goo dispensers harbour germs on the bit you push to get the goo.

Seriously, why do you think kids are preprogrammed to eat dirt and worms? To build up and strengthen their immune systems.
The more we use external mechanisms to 'protect' us the lower our natural immunity becomes. So given that the demographic that read this forum profess the need to "go to an island somewhere", what do ya reckon will happen to you and your lowered immunity when you get to that "one particular harbour" and wander around the jungle, eat some village grown fruit and drink from the river by the village?

In fact you don't even have to go that far. How about you spend a few days helping out on a farm, working the cattle yards with all the fresh dung and flies?

Anyway this conversation does prompt one important question:
Is a poop deck what I think it is?
