Looks like the Na'avi aren't the only things showing up in those movie theater 3D glasses...

The Good Housekeeping Research Institute tested seven pairs of movie theater 3D glasses, both wrapped in plastic and unwrapped, and found a number of germs, including those causing conjunctivitis, skin infections, food poisoning, sepsis and pneumonia.
One was even contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus, the most common cause of staph infections.
Yeeeesh. :shaking:

    To be fair, the list of things we touch everyday that could be potentially coated with Staph is probably pretty extensive.
