Zap germs with Handheld Germ Eliminating Light

It’s amazing and annoying how many people are germ-freaks these days; they always ruin your fun because they are scared of some “e-coliâ€? germ or something.  Well now you can shut them up once and for all because their lifesaving gadget has arrived: the Handheld Germ Eliminating Light. This cell-phone sized device uses nanotechnology to eliminate nearly 100% (have to say nearly so Hammacher doesn’t get sued) of everyday harmful germs, such as e-coli and salmonella. Just because you zapped your raw egg smoothie with this doesn’t mean you can trust that it removed all of the e-coli. You know you can trust the technology behind this device because hospitals have been using it to sterilize needles and other important equipment. Just hold the UV-C light ¼â€? to 4â€? away from the source for 10 seconds, and poof, the germs are supposedly gone. At only $80, the Handheld Germ Eliminating light might be a great way to shut up that overreacting aunt or grandma that just won’t let boys be boys. — Nick Rice
