Sounds fantastic. Wife & I rediscovered libraries some years ago when we simply ran out of space on our bookshelves and have been enthusiastic ever since. Needless to say I’m the 4square mayor of our local one

One disadvantage of hot water is that it can dry out your hands. I often have dry hands and one of the reasons for this seems to be using hot water when showering or washing my hands.

While that’s not the reason I would choose cold water over hot instinctively, I can imagine some people could.

Other than that, a lot of us are used to the fact that the water coming from the faucet often takes a while to turn from cold to hot.
Perhaps in public restrooms, the lesser evil is not getting your hopes up and not bothering about hot water at all to avoid disappointment/frustration .

Cheers,

I’m totally with you here, and have been wondering this very same thing for a long time – WHY ON EARTH DO PEOPLE PREFER WASHING THEIR HANDS WITH COLD WATER?! It’s a mystery of modern science.

But we must first check, if this is just theory or it works also in practice.
