I know what you mean. I think airplanes are flying Petri dishes so I always head for a shower as soon as I can after a flight. Maybe I am being a little neurotic. I call that shower the decontamination chamber.

I try not to be too Monk-like, but I will not use glass glasses in a hotel room since I read that they often do not get washed, just rinsed out in the sink. More places seem to have the wrapped plastic ones now so word must be out.

And when it comes to hand washing, I could give Lady MacBeth a run.

Uh, oh. I guess I do sound a bit neurotic. (Sigh)
