Hand towels or air dryer when using public restrooms?
Which do you prefer? I prefer hand towels.
Hand towels are much more cleaner and safer.

The newer versions of had dryers are much cleaner ave environmentally friendly, but i just can't get over my preference for paper towels. They just feel better.
Towels, no question. Even if hand dryers are improved to where hygiene isn't an issue, I still never feel like they're really drying my hands.
I prefer towels just because the hand dryers take so long to dry my hands. I do really like the new dyson ones though. They have so much power to them it only takes a few seconds and your hands are dry.
