I love how pragmatic Judaism can be.
When looking around before the tzibur prepares to kneel at Aleinu on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, paper towels are handed out and the tzibur places it on their knees during the bowing process. This is not done because of any halachic reason; it is done in order to ensure that one does not dirty his pants.
