Lol. This made my day.

I'm in labs at the moment, and I thought it was just someone wiping down their keyboard.

If its gross enough, burn it!  When I used to do IT support at my university, I would wear latex gloves.  I don't care how crazy I looked, I did not want to touch other people's slimey, gross, germ-infested keyboards.

One of the best way to keep people away from your board is blank keycaps + plus non qwerty layout and they wont even try to touch it ;-)
