Why is it disturbing?
Stuff in the air is a natural phenomonon, from dust stirred up by the wind to
hair falling off lions on the savanna.
Dirt is life, we rise from it and return to it. Why are we in such an all
fired hurry to keep it away?
I work with a guy who is paranoid about germs, uses that anti-bacterial hand
sanitizer before every meal. I wipe my hands on my pants after I sneeze and
sometimes go a couple days without showering. I'm sick less than half as often
as he is. He's in better physical shape than I am but in the coming influenza
epidemic I've got immunities built up and he's got nothing.

The efficiency of ionization air purifiers is very low. That is to say
that only a small percentage of particulates are trapped in a single
pass. Mechanical filtration using HEPA filters is very efficient. They
use more electricity and replacing the filters is expensive.
I use both at home in the bedroom 24/7. The gunk that accumulates in
each is impressive and disturbing.

Our Mainer wondered:
"Why is it disturbing?"
My grandmother always said, "You eat a peck of dirt before you die!" as she
was lighting a Pall Mall off of the stove.
Thanks for the input...I shall make a purchase tomorrow.
