    Some time back in V2 there was a discussion about whether or not
    a person could 'catch' anything by sitting directly on a public
    toilet seat.
    
    In the current edition of Women's Day there is a mention of a number
    of types of things that can be caught in public bathrooms. Crab lice
    is one of those that are passed on by toilet seats.

I've recently moved and I now need a new doctor.  I'd appreciate any help in 
locating a new doctor in the Acton/Concord area.  Just a generic doctor
(checkups and the like), male or female, is fine....

Thanks.

27.4Doctor *and* (unasked) DentistREGENT::BROOMHEADDon't panic -- yet.Mon Apr 23 1990 15:565
    I use Dr. Stephen Neustat, who is in downtown Maynard just up the
    street from Dr. Valentina P[asquantonio], a fine dentist.  Dr.
    Neustat is pleasant, laid-back, and an excellent diagnostician.

    Rather than belabor two conference with the same articles, users
    of DEET  (Mosquito  /  Insect  repellent) and other chemicals SHOULD
    READ the note on 'Mosquito Repellents" in the Hiking and Backpacking
    conference.
    
    Recent  reports allege  neurological  and  brain  damage  to  young
    children and the chemical showing up in urine samples of adults
    (from Skin Adsorption).
    
    (BTOQA::HIKING)
    Please Read Note #1.0 before writing there.
    
    Thanks,
