Are your glasses made out of cheese?

er, no
static air is a lovely breeding ground for all sorts of interesting bugs, particularly spore-forming bacteria. Particulary static moist air. Much as might be formed by taking a hot glass out of the dishwasher at putting it downwards on a shelf.

Just sayin.

solve the problem by being too lazy to empty the dishwasher until everything has gone cold

just as bad, then, because the glasses will be slightly wet again.

i'm fine with that.

also I never drink tea or coffee and tend to swig evian from the bottle or sip diet coke with a straw. so frankly, it's my visitors' problem more than mine...........

up in our house too
makes sure they stay dry. Bars have the glasses down but they usually have plastic mesh underneath so air can get in.

So I should get some plastic mesh, then
