[at-l] Ice-walking problem solved

[giniajim]

I've ordered a pair, so we'll see.  They're obviously not meant for heavy duty ice work, but maybe some help on icy trails.  We'll see; I'll try to remember to report back on them.

  After I read this, I strapped them on and
  tried my best to get them to slide sideways.
  Maybe they've changed; maybe I'm lucky;
  maybe they're waiting for me to use them
  on the ice so they can tumble me all the
  way down Sassafras Mtn.

  Either way, for 8.95, they were certainly
  worth a shot.
