I would have looked when I was in Montreal, but I don't know the ]french word for spicule. [.sig fed upon by deranged goret..GET AWAY FROM THAT MONITOR!] Didn't the guy who was selling those cheap Canadian spicules get arrested? Shoddy workmanship, or some such; it was written up in _Popular Goretics_ last month. I'll trade you a gross of blue vesch covers for the grommets; mine will wear orange or, on occasion, black with red polkadots, and I have these blue ones I bought for my SO's goret once, but we broke up before I could give them to her. Question about the grommets, tho': Are the foons first or second series? Seems there's some kind of oil involved in the second-series grommets my goret is allergic to; this makes for higher grommet expenses, of course, but my goret manages to allay the costs by renting hirself out to Sun corp. on weekends. I don't know what the job involves, but it pays well and the goret seems happy with it, so I won't pry. Thanx for the tip on the spindle; I got the spindle and a conversion kit from my local specialty store and it's holding up quite well.
