Isn't that black gunk that builds up on the rollers the same gunk which
you find on steering wheels on cars and other places which come in contact
with hands extensively? My theory is that if your mouse using style doesn't
include resting your hand on the desk while you slide, your mouse will stay
cleaner. The gunk is simply skin flakes, grease, and sweat compacted into
an appetizing paste by the mouse roller:-). In other words, maybe the smaller
mouse just makes you rest more of your hand on the desk, causing greater gunk
buildup.
