[at-l] Rock sharpening

[mapster at charter.net (Frank Looper)]

   The only reason that I'd still wear the 806s is the very sturdy support
in the heel, which would lower the chance of twisting/turning an ankle.
However, my ankles are pretty darned strong from a few years of a
too-heavy backpack (It's lightened by nearly 50% from when I started!), so
I'm not really that concerned. I just wonder:if my Nikes are as good as
they feel to me, why I've never heard of anyone hitting the AT in them?
