h2odragon in 1890:
People concern for "Germs" lately has me wondering how in the world humanity survived to this point, in utter ignorance of the horrid damage everything they could touch was doing to them.
Perhaps we should wash our hands with soap, with all inputs filtered for purity and consistency. Surely that would be the best way to avoid all the dire consequences of the pollutants surrounding us.

- guntherhermann 4y agoWhile I agree with you, it's possible to write this comment without the snarky, reddit-style tone. I think re-writing your comment to be less snarky and more patient would lend itself to a better website experience. Cheers.
- h2odragon 4y agoWell said. > snarky, reddit-style tone. I share the blame there. Sorry. I'd like to make the point in a better way, but im busy and my hands hurt, so i said this and hope some are amused as much as annoyed.
