Artyeo, I have about five pairs of shoes that look pretty much just like that. I have one pair that's about ten years old and they are so worn out on the heels that there's no tread left at all on them. Comfy, though. I still like my Dr. Scholl's.

Kal,
Good stuff to contemplate on.
I'm not sure I agree with everything, but it all made me think.
I'll take a longer, much closer look at these articles than I can now when I get some free time.
Thanks for posting them.
