Whatever makes you happy...
On a more serious note, the Swifter products (I think I know what you mean, as product names are different in Sweden or even Europe. We got something called Swiffer, which is probably the same.) sounds like a good idea, and they do attract dust like nothing else I've seen fully dry. At least around here, a pack of these kind of dusting cloths can be found for some $5 or so. I regulary use a sweeping/dusting broom which uses the same kind of "new" tech. and I seldom find use for the ol' hoover anymore, as dry-mopping takes care of it all, including what my furry pet leaves behind.
Even though the Crown is old, why not use some new "nano-technology"...
