Just let your hands drip dry????

I have heard before that those hot air hand dryers found in many public restrooms are breeding grounds for all sorts of bacteria. Supposedly 50 colonies or kinds of bacteria can be blasted onto your hands in 30 seconds, according to a report on TV this evening. Actually, the first I heard of this problem was on an episode of "The Big Bang Theory" when germaphobic Sheldon claimed that this was true.  I really didn't want to believe it because I like the feeling of warm air drying my hands.  I always feel so clean. I also always felt that using air dryers saved trees.  When I was traveling recently I saw a small sign posted above a hand dryer stating that that particular dryer contained a super effective hepa filter which they guaranteed would filter out 99% of all bacteria.  That sounded pretty impressive but I only saw that sign in two places. Now I'm wondering what I should do in restrooms where all they have are the hot air dryers?  Dyr my hands on toilet paper?  Yuck, That usually disolves before it drys.  Let my hands drip dry or wipe them on my clothes?  None of these solutions seems very pleasant to me so I guess I will continue to use the dryers. I think, as long as I don't lick my hands as I'm walking out of the restroom, I will probably be OK.
