Are You a Scruncher or a Folder?


No, I am not asking about how you prefer your toilet paper. In healthcare we use (waste) a whole lot of paper towels. This great video from Joe Smith at TEDx delivers, with great passion, a technique for perfectly dry hands with just one paper towel. Don’t believe it? Neither did I, but this actually works. My absolute favourite part is when Joe describes the scientific rational for the necessity of the fold… ‘interstitial suspension’. Great work Mr Smith, if you can make a four and a half minute talk on paper towels engaging, you are a true teacher. I am a folder and a new convert to the wonders of one piece.
