Subject:RE: Looking for Handeze gloves? A warning... From:cupton -at- syclone -dot- net To:"techwr-l List" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Mon, 29 Oct 2007 09:02:20 -0500 (EST)
Someone gave me some cotton glove liners once. They were fingerless,
comfortable, and warm. I loved them. I think they're available most
anywhere they sell medical latex gloves for medical personnel with
alergies to latex.
