>> Amazing how we as a society got this far without "hand-washing Nazis." No kidding. I have lots of stories I COULD tell; all harmless. We know a lot more today than we did even in the 60s about this kind of stuff -- there were no plastic gloves at that time and all the food preparation was with bare hands. People just didn't get excited about it.

Ted, > Prevent the spread of the bubonic plague. Amazing how we as a society got this far without "hand-washing Nazis." The days of Upton Sinclair are long gone ... Damn. You wingers sound like the ignorant masses who condemned Lister in the 19th century for washing his hands before surgery. They told him he was crazy when it reality its you all who are crazy. The truth is that hospitals are a hot bed for all kinds of diseases. The spread of diseases such as the skin eating strep virus or pneumonia has become a serious problem in hospitals. Maybe there is a need for handwashing Nazis. But if that's not to your satisfaction maybe we can set up special hospitals for wingers where no one is required to wash their hands. How's that?
