Fj12ryder, those reusable bags are theoretically a good idea. In practice they can be a real source for some nasty bugs unless you wash them after every use, which kind of defeats the save the environment idea...use of more water and chemicals, soap etc. Just a thought.
Well, that as may be, but my hands don't stink of diesel, which is the point of the exercise. Unless I loan them out, I'm the only one who uses them, so anything I pass along will be from me to me. And unless I've got an open sore, the chances of picking up anything strange is vanishingly small. At least it's been that way for the last 20 years or so. Nope, they've never been washed, just stored under the truck's seat. I think I have lost/misplaced a pair over the years. Oh yeah, these are the cloth gloves with the rubber coating over part of the palms and fingers. Not full rubber gloves.
But just look around you at the fuel pumps, now think about how many pairs of disposable gloves you'd be seeing in the trash if everyone used them, or even 50% of the people. It makes no sense so I don't do it.
