I can't believe that people think otherwise ... I wash EVERY glass I use in a hotel. I worked at Jasper Park Lodge as a very young student, and we were taught to clean out the drinking glasses with an old bath towel, picked up off the floor, and put a "sterile" paper cover over it ... as a consequence, nothing that ever touches my lips from a hotel room hasn't been rinsed in hot, hot water first ... I've even been known to bring my own SHEETS to a hotel ... now that's another story nobody would want to hear... and pillows! I would never, ever travel without my own PILLOW!

I am just surprised people are actually shocked at this ... what are THEY thinking?
