Well, you couldn't really expect all of us kind, gentle souls to pass up an opportunity like that, could you? (Remind me to tell you how I managed to plunk the prefilter of my water filter about 30 feet out into Lake Superior sometime. A genuine Homer Simpson moment.)

All kidding aside, Purell or similar really does earn its way in your pack. It serves the primary purpose of sanitizing hands, but also can be pressed into service for sterilizing a wound, or an emergency firestarter - and there are probably other uses I just haven't discovered yet.
