Next time you think about sharing your friend's cellphone, beware! Apparently it's more dirty than the toilet seats! Yikes!!!

[DIV class=dek] [H2]Your Cell Phone Is a Breeding Ground for Bacteria [/H2]

  New research out of the United Kingdom found mobile phones are a technological petri dish for tens of thousands of germs.

 Why? Germs multiply in warm places. Between the heat the phones generate and the germs on faces and hands, you've got a bacterial breeding ground.

 "You put it in a warm place, you hold it in your hand, you put it in your pocket like I do, it's nice and warm," said microbiologist Chuck Gerba. "Bacteria like that. It can grow in these types of places."

 That's why I prefer to speak into the big white telephone that's in the  smallest room here at 'chateau al'. It's a Ferguson! Funny, nobody returns my calls but what am I supposed to do, I can't even find my cell -

They should have saved their money......research has already shown that the WORLD is a 'breeding ground' for bacteria.  I'm thinking it's not a huge leap to conclude that something that has your hands and mouth on it....that follows you into public washrooms....would be a breeding ground for bacteria.

  So I guess the next step is marketing.  

  My research has concluded that if you create a problem, you can create a market.....consumers will flock to buy disposable phone condoms as to ensure 'safe talk'.  (ribbed for safe phone sex)

Just wait...the Japanese are gonna sell disposable plastic covers (think toilet seat covers) for cellphones.

Jesus, bad waves of paranoia, madness, fear and loathing - intolerable vibrations in this place. Get out. The weasels were closing in. I could smell the ugly brutes. Flee.
