I'm new to the cellar. You will have to cut me some slack if I post to old threads. Holy cow is there a lot to read.

A long time ago, I worked in a store that sold a lot of shoes. At the end of the day, there would always be at least one shoe, as many as four or five shoes without mates.

I don't know if the other shoe is on the side of the road. Maybe the guy who is missing a shoe, came into our store to get another. I really don't know.

I do suspect the phenomena is related.
