Thanks Leslie but I do not think that my remote will get cancer.

  Faith, may I suggest that you change that alcohol for something else. I use 
Peroxide and water only, but Dr. Clark says that the alcohol is cancer causing. 
I haven't been to her site in awhile but you ought to be able to find there. I 
had the book but loaned it out and never came back.

    I have discovered that I can get rid of a bad cold only to be re-infected 
again in a short time.  This may be because of closed up houses in cold weather 
where air-borne and surface germs can collect and reside in comfort.  So here 
is a tip that some of you may know about but I thought I'd share it anyway:

    All through the cold and flu season  I spray almost everything in my house 
with a germ-killing mixture that I make myself.  It is cheap and effective.  I 
can't remember where I got the recipe but it works wonders.  I start in the 
kitchen and go right through the house spraying and wiping all surfaces that 
are touched all the time:  sinks, fridge, stove, PHONES, REMOTE CONTROLS, door 
knobs, tables,  light switches,  bathrooms, bedrooms, etc., you-name-it.  It 
only takes me a few minutes and the house is much fresher and more germ free.  
I may repeat the  exercise for a couple of days.   I do this all winter.

    I never had CS to do this with,  but here is what I have used for a long 
time and continue to use:  In a spray bottle put 1/3 isopropyl alcohol, 1/3 
hydrogen peroxide (food grade of course) and 1/3 water.  Mix it up and spray 
away.

    Works for me.
