is that a group of H1N1 incubating school kids, who didn't yet know they were sick, spit on the latch handle of your driver's side door and every other one in the lot. It's there, but you can't see it.
Or they will. Oh, and that roadkill that you had to re-run over rather than swerve into oncoming traffic? Well, you just got some hantavirus in your ventilation system. And that rain storm last week ... did I mention the backed up runoff water with sewage in it that splattered your car when you drove through that puddle?
We like to think we own and control things more than we really do.
Well if all the metallic surfaces which are commonly touched by riders within public transit systems were made of alloys containing copper germs would be less of a problem. The oligodynamic effect of copper alloys kills most bacteria, viruses, and microbes within two hours. Why anyone has thought of this as a major public health issue is beyond me.

Seriously?
Finger-lickers are just the start.

I haven't been to a doctor in ten years, and I purr like a kitten. How about you? ;-)
Ah, yes
The old wallowing-in-filth theory!

Disgusting, but ...
How would you feel if he'd grabbed onto the pole and then licked his hand? Safer for the rest of us, maybe, but wow.
