I don't blame you Wil, I was amazed I didn't get sick at pax east as well. That was prime stomach flu season too lots of people had it and when a guy ran into the bathroom stall next to me and got sick I was sure it was going to happen to me too. The Iron Guard Salute is really the way to go at any Con, as much as people don't like it there is always someone that comes to a Con sick and passes it around.
