  A few years ago when there was the fear of bird flu, or whatever it was,
to kill the population overnight or something (the government said it so it
had to be true) my civilian boss bought boxes of anti-germ sprays and such
wanting everyone to clean their hands every time they touched something. 
(She's a germaphobe anyway and will banish people from the office if they
so much as sneeze or blow their nose).  One day reading the box she saw
where it was all made in China and threw it all away.
  Of course that made no sense to me.  After all, she had already paid for
the stuff, so just throwing it away would have no bearing on where it was
from.  The time to be upset would be before buying it.
