Covering the business of education and training

Well, it seems the University of Florida can do more than just play football.

People everywhere are nuking their sponges as a result of a study done by a research team at the University of Florida.

The school said "two minutes in the microwave at full power could kill a range of bacteria, viruses and parasites on kitchen sponges and brushes."

With "Be like Florida" T-shirts bought from CNNSI Get Florida Gear websites, people everywhere headed for their microwave ovens.

Fires, smoke, ruin, stink, cussing...and pretty soon lawsuit, no doubt...are some of the results.

A press officer at the University of Florida shared these words of wisdumb - "We figured, 'Wow, we better let people know right away that the sponge should be wet."

I don't know which is dumber...that the school didn't tell them, or that people needed to be told.

What do you think?
