in reply to OT: Wash hands after computer use.

Oh I see, you are not a human and you don't wanna end up like the poor creatures from Mars in Wells' The War of the Worlds. Good for you.

I'd rather hope my immunity is tuned up right instead of making sure I do not touch anything with my anything. And fear that the first virus or bacteria that gets into the system through the layers of protection destroys the untrained organism.

P.S.: If our former healthcare minister heard this she'd prepare a decree that all public keyboards must be wrapped in a plastic wrapper replaced after each use and may only be used with government recommended gloves. Actually, why just the public ones?

    I mean "public" in the sense of "not private". How about "multi-person-use keyboard?

    P.S. You really hate my tagline don't you? Stimulates a repressed subconcious fear?

      :-) Nope, it's not about the tagline. I just don't like these over-aseptic blurbs. I guess mostly thanks to that stupid minister. And I did understand what did you mean by public.
