Not realy. But weird is waiting for somebody to open the door for you when no paper towel is available...

There is a very good reason why the human eye has such limited resolution... if people could see what is going on on their skin, in their hair, or the mattress they sleep on you'd have to book early for your place in the mental asylum

In fact we use too much disinfectants already. A lot of allergies & skin diseases are caused by hygiene taken too far. Out bodies need a lot of those little creatures we love to kill so much, we are symbionts.

Not sure if your wife goes to the movies or pushes shopping carts around, but headrests and cart handles are about 1000 times more filthy than a pair of single-owner headphones ever could be. Unless, of course, the previous owner dipped them in their toilet--and even then, it'd be close.

I am all for buying used electronics of ebay and such, but I was kind of uneasy buying some HD-202's off ebay used. Though for $10 shipped, I couldn't pass it up. I just busted out some isopropyl alcohol and cleaned up well. Too bad the alcohol didn't clean up the sound. Those cans bite arse. They are on a shelf collecting dust...oh well, they are still cooler than a $10 bill!
