    Lise, you may just have hit upon a world saving idea...... I just
    read an article in the New Scientist magazine about some 'expert' or
    other proposing scattering clouds of moon dust into space to shield
    the earth from the sun's rays and so moderate global warming. Now I
    find the idea of using up all the odd socks in this way far more
    appealing. There would undoubtedly be far more of these than would be
    needed worldwide and it would cost much less to get them into orbit
    than mining moon dust. Now, how do we interest NASA in the idea and
    set up collection points??
