Water faucets with touchless sensors. You have to move your hands back and forth under them about eighty times for them to work. If they work at all.

Absolutely! Why are we feeding people’s phobias anyway?

Irritations, erm folk who call 'taps' faucets. No seriously though those things are terrible, so are the ones you have to push down and by the time you get your hands under the water they have stopped flowing... grrrrr.

We have them in the hospital I work at and I find that most of them work fine. If anything I find the toilet sensor flushers are too sensitive and flush at the slightest movement. I think in hospitals this technology makes sense.

Ok, I made that last one up. How surprised would you have been if it was true though.

You mean like Paris Hilton or River Phoenix? How about Armand Hammer?

My local library upgraded their computer system. It took forever to get the book I ordered. Picked it up today and there was a big hassle with my library card not working. Finely get it home to discover that the type is so effing small I can't read it even with my glasses on.

I had that problem about a year ago with a book that I’d ordered from Amazon c.d. Minute print. It was a lesson learned though because I went back and read the reviews and three of them complained about the print size.

I purchased a large, nicely produced 'Ripper diary' book a year or two ago and haven't read it because the print was too small. I learned to not buy old paperbacks produced in the early 70s for this reason. Also, some Kindle books are just small scans of the hard copy's pages which are quite difficult to read. I don't understand these choices by publishers. There should at least be a warning.

I’ve never had the problem with Kindle books Tom but I haven’t really bought that many. You’re right though, there should be a warning or there should be a page available as a sample.

The price of books is insane.
