This is mind boggling!

Check out this MSNBC article about a new dental study which says there are germs and bacteria in musical instruments - http://bodyodd.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/03/21/6314989-your-kids-crusty-clarinet-may-be-harboring-germs?GT1=43001

"Breaking down the instrument and wiping all its surfaces once a week can cut back on the germs." Didn't we all learn that from our elementary instrumental music teachers?

Make sure you read the comments at the end of the article too!
