Re: [at-l] laces and knots

A bit late but I'm just beginning to catch up on a week's worth of postings 
and I didn't notice this solution...

Use leather thong/laces.  I don't know how they would do pulling them 
through typical boot lace holes, but with boots that have only hooks, they 
work great.

Other than that, the knot discussion described a way of tying laces that I 
would only otherwise just be able to show you in person.  I think it's the 
surgeon's know that has worked for me with other "slippery" laces.
