I've read that if you huff and you puff your whole house can fall down. It was a few years ago but it came from a book written by a reputable author...

Is it bad that I use KFC handy wipes?

It will probably harm your monitor just as much as the KFC harms your stomach. Not sure which will give out first; you or the monitor. Good luck mate - enjoy what's left...

Why would they harm the monitor?

[cotswoldcs]

I'm only guessing that they probably contain a disinfectant and hence might degrade the panel. Some people suggest using ethenol or 100% alcohol whilst others say that it can do harm. I'm still a little unsure about what to use but at the moment I'm being cautious and not using any chemicals unless I'm convinced they're safe.
