Just got this emailed to me from one of my colleagues - keep this in mind the next time you go to a hotel!
Hotel Plastic Room Keys
Hotel Key Cards...This is VERY interesting and I shall take home next

When you check out of a hotel that uses the credit-card-type room key,
the clerk often will ask if you have your key(s) to turn in... or there
is usually a box or slot on the Reception counter in which to put them.
This is good for the hotel because they save money by re-using those
cards. But, it's not good for you, as revealed below.
