Does alcohol kill spores?

I'm sure soaking spores would kill them, but if you simply wipe a surface down with alcohol and let it dry, what survives?

as they said in some movie(i don't remember which one);

a belief is a dangerous thing, people will kill over it; instead of believing you need to find your facts and then have an opinionated idea that you are willing to change in light of new evidence

alcohol is most effective on vegetative contams, ones that have already germinated. effective on live bacteria but not bacterial endospores. not so effective on mold spores unless it remains in contact with them for several minutes. wiping and letting dry doesn't kill most spores because it evaporates too quickly. some spores are tougher than others though, so its varied depending on the contam and how much if it we're talking. this is also why the 70-some percent isopropyl is reccomended over the 90-some percent variety, as it takes a little longer to evaporate.
