Well, OK, may I suggest Seagate HDs, I have one up 24/7 now for 6

Yea, the way it is, some people ... you should not lend your car to
either. Or even your hanky.

Hankies are a disgusting way of speading germs.


No they're not. It's better than sneezing all over a lift full of people,
or
standing there sniffing a dripping stream of snot repeatedly back up your
nose, or wiping it on the back of your hand like anyone under the age of
40
does now ...


It seems you misunderstood me. I use disposable tissues in place of
'hankies'.

The idea of a piece of cloth that one uses many times to collect ever more
germs
is plain disgusting. The idea of offering it to someone else begs belief.

Surely it's better to keep your own germs to yourself on your own hanky in
your own pocket, until such time as you commit it to the washing machine,
where the nasty little buggers will be purged? You can't reinfect yourself
when you have a cold or whatever, it just runs its course.IMHO, it's dumping
your germs into the public domain where they can infect others, by way of a
'disposable' tissue, that ranks as disgusting ... :-\
