SPENCE I need your advice

Pinstripe or Charcoal?

A COMPANY IN JAPAN HAS INVENTED A SWINE FLU-PROOF SUIT:
Well, it's officially fall. And if you believe the "experts," that means swine flu is about to start spreading like wildfire.

--Fortunately, a Japanese clothing company called the Haruyama Trading Company, has just invented a stylish new BUSINESS SUIT that protects against swine flu. So how does this thing work?

--Basically, the suit is coated with a chemical typically used in toothpaste and cosmetics called Titanium Dioxide. When Titanium Dioxide comes into contact with the H1N1 virus, it breaks it down and KILLS it.

--And even after you wash the suit several times, it still retains its protective properties.

--Overall, about 50,000 swine flu-proof suits have been produced in four different colors . . . medium gray, charcoal, navy and pinstripe gray.

--The swine flu-proof suit goes on sale tomorrow for about $580.

What happens when you touch something with your hand then touch your face? would be much more effective as a pair of stylish gloves. they would probably work.

I think the late MJ demonstrated a better solution with the gloves and mask then using a TiO2 impregnated suit. Are these items still available from auction?

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

For fuller protection against the flu (and all human contact) these might be a better option, 2 versions are shown: one allows the freedom of movement and the other seems to be a little restrictive but provides fuller protection by filtering all incoming air.
