        I just got a pair of these, but with a new carbon fiber frame
that has a lot lower dork factor... 8^)=   The carbon fiber frame doesn't
meet ANSI safty standards as the thicker plastic frames do , but they're
a *lot* lighter.  I ordered them from Wale Apparatus, part number 11-1140,
$145.00 plus shipping.
