I totally agree about the flush and door handles, taps etc. One great innovation is those automatic flushes and taps that work just by your waving your hand in front of them.

The biggest "yuk factor" for me are shop assistants who lick their fingers before opening a plastic carrier bag and then put your purchases in - that's particularly horrible in food shops. They may as well just spit on your food !!! Am I alone in finding that repulsive ?
