Oh dear, it went right over your little head, George. How long have you

I understand your faith in this thing, Heidi. But-- I don't necessarily
think the Lord will "protect" us just because we are doing work in the
temple. We LDS people are always getting sick just as other people do. It
seems the Lord doesn't stop this from happening but actually deems that
we get sick-- you know-- those wonderful little trials that we get stuck
with? I want to avoid those trials if I can.

Such paranoia didn't do Howard Hughes any good. I'm beginning to think that 
perhaps people should be exposed to as many germs as possible, starting 
with early childhood. That way the body can build up its immune system and 
develop resistance to as many germs and viruses as possible. For example, I 
exposed my children to chickenpox when they were young (and at the best age 
to handle such a disease, as opposed to when they are middle aged or older 
and have more severe complications) and they have never had any problems 
since.

I remember reading an article in one scientific journal, which had what 
appeared to be some evidence for its thesis, that one of the reasons 
western culture and civilization developed and persevered was due to the 
fact that that particular stock of people had more immunity built up than 
other races or peoples.

feeling that when we are in the temple, we are where we are supposed to be
and everything will be alright.  I just don't worry about it there. 
Naturally, I wash my hands as per my usual practice (like after using the
restroom and before eating) but beyond that, I just don't worry about it in
the temple.

But that's me...

Not too complicated.  Before glucose testing, I spray the area I'm going

It's just down right dirty, nasty, and germy. There just doesn't seem to
be a way out of it. H. Oh well; what can we do? We have no say about

Wait!

Could we wear latex gloves in the temple?? I'm dead, serious! Can we? Who

Just do what I said.  Don't touch your face, and wash your hands before
sticking them into your mouth.  By the way, from experience I can tell you

Siblings, day-care attendance, and the risk of asthma and wheezing
during childhood.
Ball TM, Castro-Rodriguez JA, Griffith KA, Holberg CJ, Martinez FD,
Wright AL.
Department of Pediatrics, University of Arizona College of Medicine,
Tucson, USA.
BACKGROUND: Young children with older siblings and those who attend day
care are at increased risk for infections, which in turn may protect
against the development of allergic diseases, including asthma. However,
the results of studies examining the relation between exposure to other
children and the subsequent development of asthma have been conflicting.
METHODS: In a study involving 1035 children followed since birth as part
of the Tucson Children's Respiratory Study, we determined the incidence
of asthma (defined as at least one episode of asthma diagnosed by a
physician when the child was 6 to 13 years old) and the prevalence of
frequent wheezing (more than three wheezing episodes during the
preceding year) in relation to the number of siblings at home and in
relation to attendance at day care during infancy. RESULTS: The presence
of one or more older siblings at home protected against the development
of asthma (adjusted relative risk for each additional older sibling,
0.8; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.7 to 1.0; P=0.04), as did
attendance at day care during the first six months of life (adjusted
relative risk, 0.4; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.2 to 1.0; P=0.04).
Children with more exposure to other children at home or at day care
were more likely to have frequent wheezing at the age of 2 years than
children with little or no exposure (adjusted relative risk, 1.4; 95
percent confidence interval, 1.1 to 1.8; P=0.01) but were less likely to
have frequent wheezing from the age of 6 (adjusted relative risk, 0.8;
95 percent confidence interval, 0.6 to 1.0; P=0.03) through the age of
13 (adjusted relative risk, 0.3; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.2 to
0.5; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Exposure of young children to older children
at home or to other children at day care protects against the
development of asthma and frequent wheezing later in childhood.

Thanks for the towel tip.  It leaves something else to throw away after one 
has left the public rest room but I suppose it's a lot safer.  I rarely get 
sick--maybe once in the winter--with the exception of my current pleuritic 
condition, and I suspect that was not from a virus.

I am a big believer in hand washing.  That might have something to do with
the fact that my mother is a nurse.  Anyhoo...I've spent a lot of time
around children that aren't my own, and I rarely get sick.  I strongly
believe that I wash my hands thoroughly as often as possible.  I'm not
obsessive about it, but I do wash my hands thoroughly before eating and
after using the loo, before and after being around children (like, serving
in the nursery or looking after the neighbors' kids, etc), and also when
I've touched animals (like petting a dog).  I've taught my children to be
careful about washing their hands as well, and they rarely are sick beyond
having allergies...

Also, I don't use anti-bacterial soap at my house.  In both bathrooms and
in the kitchen, I have liquid soap pumps filled with regular,
non-anti-bacterial soap.  Also, and this is an eccentricity (if you want to
call it that) passed on to me from my mother...after using a public
restroom and washing hands, I use a paper towel in my hand (or, failing
that, a tissue from my purse) to open the door to leave - in recognition of
the fact that most people don't regularly wash their hands well, if at all,
and then they go touch that door handle.  Ish!

Re: [ZION] hand shakes

2003-06-21 Thread Jon Spencer
Antibacterial soap is no more effective than regular soap.  Here's the
facts:

1.  The skin keeps bacteria and viruses out of the body.
2.  Bacteria and especially viruses lurk in the oil on your hand.
3.  Washing with water only does a poor job of removing these disgusting
oils!
4.  Washing with a wetting agent such as soap or detergent removes these
oils.  But ya gotta wash ALL of the surface of your hands, including between
the fingers.  Most people do an extremely poor job of washing their hands.
5.  Antibacterial agents kill some bacteria, but certainly don't do anything
about viruses (you know, colds, flues. etc.)
6.  Stop poking your face with your hands.  That will eliminate much of the
infection that occurs.
7.  If you are worried about shaking hands, then also do not touch any
handrails, nor any door knobs, nor anything else anyone has touched.

As an interesting side note, there was a study done on the causes of
intestinal infection on wilderness backpackers.  What made them sick?  Was
it untreated water?  Bad jokes?  What was it?

It turns out that the highest correlating factor was whether or not they
washed their hands before eating and after pooping.  Those who did seldom
got sick.  Those who got sick seldom did.

Thanks for the tip. Consider it a done deal next time we go shopping. 

By the way, I think that guy who hugged you is probably a creep. Stay
away from him and don't trust anyone just because they are LDS. Believe
me, I've seen some really strange things go on in our one true Church.
The doctrine is true but some of the members are nuts. Keep your guard
up. It sounds like that guy is a real bozo.

That's right, wise guy. 

The charter states that all scripture is not suitable for the Zion list
and we wouldn't want our beloved moderator to have a hissy and people get
all offended over sacred text they can't handle. If you don't believe me
just take a gander at these scriptures and you'll get the idea real fast:

"But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to
speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall,
that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?" 
Isaiah 36:12 

"And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when
he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground,
lest that he should give seed to his brother." Gen 38:9

You see, as usual, I'm right again.

I would rather shake hands than the greeting I got this past Sunday.  Our
first Sunday in our new unit, and some brother comes up and, ignoring my
outstretched hand, hugs me.  Needless to say, being hugged by a man who was
a total stranger to me made me EXTREMELY uncomfortable.  Yeah, yeah, I know
we're not strangers but fellow saints, but that doesn't mean I want to hug
one I've not ever met yet.  I'm just going to have to make a point to avoid
this person, I guess (unless y'all have any other suggestions).  Heck,
there's a lot about the way this branch is run that I just don't know about
yet...my husband believes this is a test for us to see how we'll react to
all the weirdness going on.

Paul, you can get bottles of the anti-bacterial stuff that is the right
size for your pocket or your wife's handbag, and they have a flip top. 
Either that, or you can carry around those individually-wrapped
anti-bacterial moist towelettes, as I do.  That, and I keep a container of
those wipes that are the kind that you can use for hands or whatever
(there's Lever2000, Splash-n-go...you know what I mean, though, right?) in
the car at all times.

Anyway, stay tuned for tales from our new branch...

Land that I love!
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam…
God bless America!
My home, sweet home.

Stop spreading your nasty germs, Jimmyboy. ;-))

Did you know that I actually packed two cans of lysol spray on my mission
to London England!? No kidding. My companion at the MTC was from New
York, a real odd-ball, more so than me, in fact-- he told me he in the
past had ring worm and I flipped out, arming my self with a can of lysol,
I commenced to spray him down right there at bedside-- he was beside
himself! You should have seen it! Boy, was I a nutcase.

Well, I'm not a prophet and I ain't ever gonna be one if I get my way. I
suppose that they are protected by the Lord inasmuch as they can't spend
too much time in bed sick or the work would never get done. With my luck
(shaking dirty hands) I would spend plenty of time in bed sick and
constantly complaining about this lousy world we have to live in--I mean
the world I volunteered to come to. Good grief, was I ever a sucker.

Sounds to me like you're advocating the washing of hands BEFORE 
shaking!  There IS pretty good scriptural support for the custom.  I would 
be unhappy to see it disappear.
