Never Too Clean

     4Heather and Jean were working side by side in the kitchen preparing dinner. 5Heather was meticulous about hygiene. 6She filled the sink with piping hot, soapy water and scrubbed the kitchen knives, all the counter-tops, and cutting boards with surprising energy.
     7"That water is too hot," Jean exclaimed, "You are going to ruin your beautiful hands."
     8 "Well," Heather replied, "I read in the paper that washing hands in hot soapy water for at least 20 seconds rinses off surface bacteria and makes it difficult for bacteria to cling to skin. 9So I think, if it's smart to wash your hands, it's probably smart to wash the work space and utensils, too."
     10"You are a little paranoid about a few germs, aren't you?" Jean asked.
     11 "With something this important, it doesn't hurt to be cautious," Heather answered.
