glad to see that some scientists were sitting around in a room and someone said "hey - let's study grocery carts and ATM's to see if there is any poop on them"........

I can see shopping carts having it. Parents are always putting their poopy kids with their poopy fingers in the top basket.

I recall watching an episode of mythbusters where they tested the dirtiness of various things. Shopping carts were one of the things tested, and they were near the bottom of the list in terms of dirtiness. Fecal coliforms can get pretty much everywhere, but almost always in quantities so small as to be completely harmless.

Considering the amount of people I see not wash their hands in public bathrooms (its easily over half), this doesn't surprise me. Disgusting.
