Those d#*mn Safety Seals...Hotel Toiletries

I just spent a frustrating time trying to remove the safety seal on a tube of hotel-supplied shampoo -- in the shower, without access to a sharp pointy object, and with soapy, slippery fingers -- and failed. While I appreciate the lengths companies are now going to to ensure we have "sanitary" products, this sort of seal makes no sense. Okay, on the mouth wash, sure...my hands are dry and I can generally slip the seal off...

(This just adds to that long list of unopenable sealed packaging like those clear soft plastic CD containers that are used in product displays; the sealing cellophane used on videotapes and CDs and DVDs...)
