<DIV><SPAN class=375435721-01022007><FONT face=Arial>I've told several people
about, and some of you have seen me wear, 'ice cleats' on my shoes during this

they're not hard to get on and off your shoes. Yes, they come in
different sizes. Yes, I wear the same ones on a pair of regular shoes
and on a pair of big clodhoppers or athletic shoes, they stretch. Can

want to click when you walk, buy some golf shoes. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
