An alarm system might not be such a bad idea

We’ve recently posted a blog item and published a Mitch Albom column about the study that found that only 75 percent of men wash their hands after going to the bathroom. That reminded Eagle reader John Banman of this old “Far Side” cartoon.

    Maybe we are missing the point. “Hello here shake with my…” Officer he exposed him self, he went to the bathroom, did not wash his hands and then waved at those teenage girls!

    I think that has as much to do with it as hygene.

    I am a PC tech, and it really bothers me seeing people not washing their hands. I have to sit at their keyboards and work on their PC’s… Yea… I want to type on piss covered keys!

    I don’t my hands because I use the facilities. I wash them because I have to touch the filthy flush handle. But then I have to touch the damn door to get out of there. Oh, well. It keeps me from picking my nose.
