They are very good if you heat them in the stove and then wrap a towel around them they will help keep your feet warm all night. They have a hole in one end and also double as good canoe anchors. So I find out today that a Polish friend of ours in Poland is working on his conservation doctorate with a thesis in restoration of historic sounds. Clop of the horse hooves on cobbles and turn of the cart wheel sort of stuff. Ambient environmental preservation takes the concept of conserving the built environment a step further. The one thing I regret from the recent trip to Poland was that I did NOT have sound equipment with me. The sounds of Poland are amazing. ][<en -- To terminate puerile preservation prattling among pals and the uncoffee-ed, or to change your settings, go to: <http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/bullamanka-pinheads.html>
