    I am not afraid to touch door handles, I just choose not to. >>

    << <i>My favorite experience was at a grand, upscale hotel in central London about 10 years ago.

    I was standing in front of the TV about to leave when a medium-sized rat comes out of a hole near the ceiling, runs down the wall, across the carpet, between my legs and under the bed. >>



    WOW,
    A hotel that suplies pets! Now thats Ritzy.

    That's why Longacre only stays at the County Hall when traveling to London. If there are any rats, they would certainly at least be wearing a tophat and tails.

    Man this thread makes me want to puke! Thanks though for the info. My wife won't touch the glasses and now I know why. I figure bourbon will kill most anything so that's probably why I am still alive. I knew that stuff would come in handy for something besides starting a bar fight. image

    Never touch the hand rails of an escalator. If you have kids you would know why.

    Thank God for immune systems. I saw this on TV the other night
    and it reminded me of stories you hear about resturants.

    Large, busy, public restrooms like at a sports stadium are the worse. The misting effect
    from splatter and flushing put .....never mind. Thank God for immune systems.

    I felt sorry for a few of my comrades in the military who got crabs in a latrine. It was gross hearing about it. We often joked about it, but... laughter can't get rid of some diseases.

    Very informative thread. Maybe Howard Hughes was not so bizarre after all.....

    And just think what your fingers are right now being exposed to

    << <i>According to a University of Arizona study, office workstations are much dirtier than bathrooms. A computer keyboard can harbor up to 3,295 microbes per square inch, a computer mouse 1,676. Telephones were the worst culprit, with 25,127 microbes. By contrast, the average toilet seat contains only 49 microbes per square inch. >>

    edited to note that this post seems to have killed the thread, most likely because everyone reading it is now afraid to touch their keyboard.... image

    I've traveled extensively and can add that many of the cleaning people don't even know how to speak English. That said, they probalby cannot follow cleaning directions from the hotels.

    Well that is worse than I expected. I will certainly not trust things to be clean.

    On a trip to Greece my best buddy and I moved in to our room. My buddy saw a local cat and he likes cats. So he gave the cat a cookie. Well an hour later or so I stepped on something soft. It was a rat! I just yelled and was totally freaked out. The cat had caught the rat and gave it back to us I guess. Anyway I insisted we switch hotels pronto.
