Clean Little Hands are Good to See

Saturday, April 3rd, 2004

Obsessive-compulsives everywhere, rejoice! There is now a hand-scanning* device that detects germs that improper hand-washing fails to remove (”Quick! Someone open up a Tokyo office!”). The contraption will only be sold to hospitals and restaurants initially but once it’s available to the public I think I’ll get one. It’ll be nice to have around the kitchen. I’d better hide it from my three-year old though. He has developed an irrational preoccupation with cleanliness. He may totally overload it!
