  • May 24 2012: It would be great if someone created a pictorial illustration of the Shake and Fold technique and it's potential impact. The illustration could then be posted as placards in restrooms, which would provide a contextual reminder of the technique, and also allow the message to spread to an even wider audience.

I've been using a single reduced size, recycled paper towel to dry my hands for years, but then let this virtually clean wet towel dry, and save it in a bag on my counter top for reuse in household cleanup. Voila, twice the paper savings...
