Thread: I just thought about something

How about microwaving your bills? They're still nasty, but most germs gone,
Carry a plastic baggie for incoming bills. Cashiers can drop bills in the bag to take home and nuke.

You guys are cracking this old Indian up, send me all the money you have, I will "launder" it for all of you!

NittyGritty: I love it! How about washing your money with the laundry and then drying it. Some microorganisms wouldn't survive it. Better yet, use your debit card or credit card as microbes don't last on those as long. Just as long as they aren't from B of A you are good.

Have you ever played a quater slot machine after a while your hands are black form the dirty coins, there was a story on the Travel channel about
the casinos washing coins.

That's not dirt. That's residue from the metal. You'll get the same thing handling billets of metal fresh from the foundry.

There was an X-File episode where terrorists sprayed something on our money....they tested it out at a small town movie theatre.

Everyone in the theatre had their skin on their faces and hands rotted off, when the agents found them.

And how could feces be on dollar bills, unless the people's hands were full of it?

Geesh!

I counted the change I have been tossing in a jar since January first. When I finished by hands were filthy.
Another thought about paper money came to mind. Many people don't wash their hands after going to the bathroom.

Why couldn't some of those diseases be transmited by passing around our money? Not many wash their hands after paying for something or getting change.

Absolutely!

That is standard practice in many third worl countries

My wife and I keep a bottle of that hand sanitizer in our truck and our car, to wash our hands after going to the store, it is great when a sink is not close to hand, we are not really germ freaks but hey, you never know nowadays, esp after handling some of those fresh veggies!
