In an email regarding polyurethane coatings for gloves, jg wrote:

I was asked about the "styling" coating on my gloves. Yes, it is possibly even cooler than Mouser's sunglasses.

My sunglasses require a special OSHA permit just to be seen near. They radiate such amazing coolness that special safety goggles are needed to gaze upon them. To meditate on their apperance will ease the mind and clear the sinuses.

Either that or they were on sale because no one in their right mind would wear lemon-yellow sunglasses, and basically I'm a cheap bastard.
