Several people have thoughtfully suggested that we keep the second pair 
as back-ups.  However, I neglected to mention that he is switching to a 
completely different type of frame.  (The type that loops around the back 
of his ear.)  We have asked *several* places if they can just attach the 
loop part onto his current frames, and they have all said no.  Seems kin 
of fishy, but what can we do?  He needs this kind, because his vision is 
such that if his glasses slip down his nose even a little, his vision is 
affected.

So we'll keep one pair as back-up, but the second are truly not needed.
