American cleanliness

An interesting and thought provoking news! Lat me quote some statistics from 'Business India' magazine. 

"

Chances that American men failed to wash their hands after using toilets, in 2005 study :  1 in 4.

Chances that American men failed to wash their hands after using toilets, when same study was repeated in 2007 :  1 in 3.

"

That's a great progress .. for the Americans ... isn't it ?  You know, these are the people who initiated a programme viz. "Wash your hands after using toilets" (in association with Hindusthan Unilever), in Kerala villages a few years ago. It's interesting .. Who should teach whom ?
