No way those were voice activated. You were lucky if it wasn't stuck and could get a clean section. If not, drying your hands on your pants was always an option. ?
I would just the use back side if the roller was stuck. It was usually drier than the front side, and whatever germs that might have been on the towel, probably died off in the meantime.

Is it a recyclable towel that cleans after wiping?

It seems pretty frugal. I remember reading some advice; instead of buying paper towels just buy packs of white rags, throw them in a separate bin and when full wash with lots of bleach. Was thinking of it the other day when going through too many rolls of paper towels.
IIRC, they were actually cloth. When you pulled down, it would unroll from one roller (fresh), onto another roller (used). When it reached the end, the rolls were removed and a new one added. The used-up roll would go to washing and sanitation ready for reuse.
They were called continuous roll towel cabinets.

At least, that was the theory. The reality was more along the lines of them being changed once in a blue moon, and only if that coincided with the Tarot cards being in your favour.

Oh I thought it was self cleaning or something. That's just retarded. Yeah I'd figure there were never replaced, it's hard enough just to get someone at work to put new paper towels when they are out.

The bars I went to they were changed as often as the bathrooms were cleaned.

Just the opposite of the person tasked with refilling the napkin dispenser at a fast food place. They open a fresh carton of napkins and will jam them in the dispenser until they are compressed down denser than a black hole, just so they don't have a partial carton left over. So when you go to get one or two napkins, you wind up having to take 20 or 30. The same with Styrofoam coffee cups. They use a 12-ton ram to shove the cups into the holder, and if you can get a grip on one, you pull 6 or 7 off. :mad:
